Book excerpt: Oracular Transmissions' weaves together three of the most recent collaborative projects Etel Adnan and Lynn Marie Kirby have completed through processes of exchange and translation: 'Back, Back Again to Paris' (2013), 'The Alhambra' (2016), and 'Transmissions' (2017). 00Etel Adnan is a Lebanese, Paris-based artist, essayist, and poet who was a longtime resident of Marin County and is known for her works inspired by her relationship to Mount Tamalpais. 00Lynn Marie Kirby is a San Francisco-based artist who makes films, videos, and site-responsive installations, often with text-based components. 00The book also includes poems by Denise Newman, a friend to both Adnan and Kirby, and an introduction by KADIST curator Jordan Stein presenting their works and performances. 00Design and typography by Brian Roettinger bring these numerous transmissions ? video, performance, photography, email and other texts ? together in one volume.
