"The photograph is an incomplete utterance, a message that depends on some external matrix of conditions and presuppositions for its readability."

Previous Quote

In Lords of Rainbow I start out by taking away color from the world, and in the process show color's vital place in our lives. At least I hope that by the end of the book it's a portion of what the reader comes away with - a sense of how much color perception enriches our lives and how its lack can make our sensory experience incomplete.
