This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

An exhibition recently opened at The Renaissance Society on the campus of
the University of Chicago. The artist, William Pope L., took the title from
Wolfe's short story "Forlsesen" from *Gene Wolfe's Book of Days*.

The show is really great. At its center is an elaborate architectural
construction of molded mdf board. Visitors can go in and out of the
structure (he described it as something like a spaceship). At the entrance
to the space, reproductions of the first and last page of "Forlesen" frame
the exhibition. One wall of the construction is plastered with a mixture of
ketchup and wall spackle.
