hallo,
danke für die rückmeldung. der grundgedanke der arbeit liegt nich
darin dem browser nichts zum anzeigen zu geben sondern (um aus dem
text zu zitieren) die seite "selbst mittels einer meditation über die
grundlegenden formeln des quellcodes [zu] überwinden: <html>, <head>,
<title>, <body>, system, geist, begriff, körper. überwindung wäre aber
nur möglich gewesen, hätte die seite niemals existiert."
sorry falls das in meiner (dürftigen) englischen übersetzung nicht so
rübergekommen ist.
lg
carlos
