Bibliography
- Robert Smithson, various essays, 60s (entropy)
"By drawing a diagram, a ground plan of a house, a street plan to the location of a site, or a topographic map, one draws a "logical two dimensional picture." A "logical picture" differs from a natural or realistic picture in that it rarely looks like the thing it stands for. It is a two dimensional analogy or metaphor - A is Z"
- Roger Caillois, La dissmymetrie,1973 (entropy in reverse)
- Matthew Fuller, Media Ecologies, 2005

- Rosalind Kraus et Yves-Alain Blois, A user's guide to entropy, 1996
- Robert Morris Anti-form, 1968 (Art as process rather than stable objects)
"Permuted, progressive, symmetrical organizations have a dualistic character in relation to the matter they distribute. This is not to imply that these simple orderings do not work. They simply separate, more or less, from what is physical by making relationships themselves another order of facts."
- Louis Pasteur, La dissymetrie moleculaire (1848?) - only as the scientifical root of concept
"The universe is asymmetric and I am persuaded that life, as it is known to us, is a direct result of the asymmetry of the universe or of its indirect consequences. The universe is asymmetric."
- Antoine Lavoisier? (no loss of matter)
"Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed."
