Matt King
Travel to a point where there is no longer a point

travel

Travel to a point where there is no longer a point is a sort of reversal of words that means everything and nothing at the same time. As a sentence an act of purposelessness, but at the same time it asks the big question “What does it all mean?” Just as any other story works, this book has a beginning, middle and end. As you progress through the pages, the starting point (the reason for existence), becomes obscured by the translucent paper and is perhaps replaced with an almost Zen-like enlightenment of nothingness.
