Annulation-By-Addition
Writing of absence, or the attempted erasure of a form by its double.

The Rustle of Language, Roland Barthes, 1975
The covering reveals the spectral contours of the vanished form,
as do the white sheets on the sofa of a forgotten house.
A doubly missed message, like the muffled scream on a wall that contains both its meaning and its negation.

Vigilante Vigilante: The Battle for Expression, 2011
Want to annul the information on your T-shirts?
Reduce the noise? Apply a layer of silkscreen in a color as close as possible to that of the fabric.

Urgent, you’re running out of time, tools need to be reactive. Use stencils!

Watch out for the resurgence,
that surfacing of the pre-existing sign.
Its disappearance is always visible,
perhaps even more visible than it once was.
