About this work

This is a grid of tiny squares printed on plain white paper. At the top, the words "Orgasm Energy Chart" are written in bold black letters, followed by *"general idea, toronto"* in smaller print. Below that, there’s a space for your birthdate and sex, then rows labeled "A.M." and "P.M." with months and locations listed. The chart looks like a mix between a calendar and a science experiment—meant to track energy levels by time of day. It’s dry, serious, and a little weird. If this style intrigues you, check out lithography.
