morel's invention
Experimental project of reconstructing Adolfo Bioy Casares book "Morel's Invention".
The main idea was to create an object of cyclic, continuos, reading, giving shape to the characters' "eternal return". In order to do that, its pages were conceived as an unique continuos folded piece, presenting the same content on both sides: when the reader turns the last page, he finds the book cover once again, and from that, the repetition of all he's just read.
Along with that formal resource, the book's narrative is divided in two distinct lines, representing, graphically, what is happening in the story: one, concerning Morel'group, is repeated indefinetely, independent of the structure of the book. The other, which narrates the misadventures of the main character, follows this structure, and runs parallelly to the frist one until it merges with it, becoming image, repetition..
