Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Berkeley, CA: CelestialArts / Utopia Grokware, 1996. First Edition and First Printing (see scan). Quarto, wraps, unpaginated. This interesting book was produced by lightly adhering the textblock into its illustrated wraps cover, which have blurbed and priced flaps like a dustjacket,… but are of heavy stock, like a cover. Basically, displaying an uncertainty (perhaps intentional) regarding whether the cover was to be that, or a jacket. The adhesion tended to come loose, as it has in this case, such that the textblock sits within the jacket-like covers, unattached - which perhaps it should have in the first place. That plus a modest amount of peripheral wear to the covers/jacket keep this first printing copy out of what would otherwise be Near Fine condition. Contents are fine. A collection of "digital apparitions" - computer-produced psychedelic graphics by "prophetic rocker Todd Rundgren and pioneering tech-yogi David Levine" - at a time when such stuff was, indeed, rather new in the mass marketplace. Not representational in any way, the images are just fun and colorful things to look at. Music for the eyes. A nice First Printing copy, and rather scarce. LG-1.
