Commission accomplished.
To the Editor:
As an addendum addendum n. an addition to a completed written document. Most commonly this is a proposed change or explanation (such as a list of goods to be included) in a contract, or some point that has been subject of negotiation after the contract was originally proposed by one party. to Bruce Hainley's article on my video work ["Teen Angle," January 2004], I'd like to note that the beautiful texts quoted from Hans und Grete, 2002-2003, were written by the great Alissa Bennett. I commissioned Bennett to write for the project after reading sections of And Distance Shifts, her novel in progress, which, like the texts she contributed to Hans und Grete, masterfully balances authentic teen vernacular with more abstract themes of time and memory.
