Ephemera : Altered Books : The World of the Snake

The World of the Snake

The World of the Snake uses text pages from the work of the same name by Hal H. Harrison. Additional colored Japanese and western papers, sewn with linen thread using a two-needle Coptic stitch, are used to form a whimsical serpent. The box uses binder’s board, embossed paper, dust jacket, and book cloth with the spine label laser-printed on Japanese paper.

If you register and login you can view and post comments. (huh?)

One of the perks of membership is that you get to read and post comments on objects, museums, and other member's walls.

Comments aren't exactly secret (almost anybody can register!) but they aren't totally public either - they aren't indexed by searched engines and the user agreement says you can't publish them elsewhere without their author's permission.

(And some users have chosen to restrict access to their personal walls - in which case you'll have to friend them before you can post to their wall.)

Please don't feel excluded. It doesn't cost anything to register. Just sign up and you'll be an insider in no time flat.
