A temporary reading space and a satellite exhibition of books and other printed material, Quasi~Library was presented in continuity with the exhibition Quasi: Experimental Writing Systems. On display were rare books and special materials from the Designing Writing collection and the ArtCenter Library main and special collections centered around the themes of invented and fictional scripts, asemic writing, and the speculative possibilities of writing and language beyond mere functionality.
