Notes:
"It should not be imagined that Moonstrips is an entirely random product; it is, rather, a complex mechanism in which choice and chance are pitted against one another. Images are organised sometimes by class--visual or linguistic; sometimes by a process random or simply convenient. The fact that the sheets are loose in their box transfers to the owner of Moonstrips the function of editor, but all the possible language patterns are predetermined by the conceptual decisions of the programmer."
