Today we bring you a piece from the collaboration between artist Sal Randolph and historian D. Graham Burnett, The Esthetical Society for Transcendental & Applied Realization (Society for Esthetic Realizers), or ESTAR(SER), a fictional historical society that frames aesthetic appreciation as a form of ritual. Below is one page of the Rülek Scrolls from ESTAR(SER)’s archives, which “outline a remarkable and exigent technique for attaining psychosomatic/metempsychotic union with a material, human-made object.”

from The Rülek Scrolls.
