Descriptive Notes

"This book was inspired by researching into alchemy and chemistry. Old medieval illustrations reveal the belief that a human servant could be conjured-up from ancient recipes. The fabricated human was an exact replica except that it had no soul. The replica was called a Homonculous. The book represents a notebook kept by someone who not only believes Homonculi can be made, but sees them everywhere in the form of shop and display dummies, then documents them in the form of notes and photographs. The paper-clipped pages are actually printed within the book as are the ink spills and typewritten notes. There are some elements added by hand such as a punch cut, rubber stamp and drawn marks. The main pages are printed on 130g cartridge."--Publisher's catalog (2004).
"Written, produced and illustrated by Dr. Jackie Batey"--P. [1] Damp Flat Books Catalogue 2004.
Limited ed. of 5 copies.
Red card cover with stapled binding made to resemble an exercise book.
