The presence of the original is the prerequisite to the concept of authenticity - Walter Benjamin, 1936 When Benjamin wrote this he was talking about the way in which new technologies at the turn of the century were enabling people to reproduce works of art on mass scale. What I find interesting about this statement is him saying that a work of arts’ authenticity can only come from the original. What happens when that ‘original’ is then taken away? What is the ‘original’? When the photocopies are made, the studio experiments, the drawings that appear in sketchbooks and the documentation of previous works of art are arranged onto the bed of the photocopier in a new composition, this is The Photocopy vs. the Bound then copied creating another ‘original’. Photocopies can cause something to happen. Photocopy My artists’ books practice feeds off all other areas of my works can take on the accessible book form as well as creative life.

By receiving this data automatically, online bookshops can make every book published available for sale online. Because of this, your book will automatically appear on most of the big online bookshop sites, such as amazon.co.uk and waterstones.com. It may also be advertised by third parties, again through their access to Nielsen, on sites such as eBay and Amazon Marketplace. These shops don’t necessarily hold physical copies of your book in stock, but will order them as required through normal book trade channels. Matador only has an input into the information that is provided to Nielsen. We have no influence over the way in which the information is displayed by other s. Because of the sheer volume of information handled by the Nielsen BookData system, it can take a while for information to filter through to retailers once it has been updated by us. It may, for example, take up to three weeks for your cover to appear on online bookshops once it has been uploaded. Why are online bookshops offering my book at such a large discount? We have no say over what price any retailer sells a book for. The publisher now can only suggest a RRP (Recommended Retail Price) – but what the consumer finally pays is beyond the publisher’s control.
