800 illuminated books was installed under the brooklyn bridge in water street, new york. armed with the intention that literature should seize the streets and overtake public spaces, spanish designers luzinterruptus randomly placed these literary objects in such a way so that people were able to walk among them easily, stop to look at them and even read them.

❝ We (in the sense of human beings) travel and explore the world, carrying with us some “background books”. These need not accompany us physically; the point is that we travel with preconceived notions of the world, derived from our cultural tradition. In a very curious sense we travel knowing in advance what we are on the verge of discovering, because past reading has told us what we are supposed to discover. In other words, the influence of these background books is such that, irrespective of what travelers discover and see, they will interpret and explain everything in terms of these books. ❞
