quantified autobiography

or how difficult it is to be maria meijide

 

This text is a quantified autobiography and, at the same time, an invitation.
It is a narrative defining me in sections, but also anyone reading it, because it works as a set of mirrors too.
That what you read about me is a question for you.
Readers are invited to fill in blanks. It is a representation form.
The readers answer takes part in an open project about endless shared writing.
In another sense, this quantified autobiography is a piece rooted in the present, as much in content as in form. A brief life story during the last 42 years organized and set in quantities as in a self-service restaurant form. It is also a campaign against bad life: Join it!
