About this work

This looks like a handwritten note with pencil scribbles. The paper is lined, and the writing is messy, covering dates, times, and instructions for an event. There’s a circle with "ESP" inside it, and some drawings of bars or waves. The text mentions "telepathic transmissions" and a time of midnight. The artist made this in 1965, using pencil on old notebook paper. It’s not a clear message—more like a puzzle or a performance idea. If you like this kind of weird, experimental art, check out James Riddle.
