EAST OF BORNEO • A Scent Journal by Kashina
Antifurniture / 2020
Paperback / 160 pages
East of Borneo is the daily journal of Kashina, a collector and connoisseur of perfumes and scents. In the service of description, her diary tracks encyclopedic projections of sense and sensation, a dream-landscape built from her baroque private cultural catalogues, including psychotronic cinema, underground literature, esoteric musicology, and spice-garden botany.
"This kind of writing moves forward like mathematics, never to be undone or superseded." -Luca Turin
