From the
"When Magdalena and I decided to collaborate, one spring morning over breakfast in the desert, we set the arbitrary and entirely binding terms of our game. The point was explicitly not to plot and plan every piece. No waiting for the muses to bless us. No perfecting each photograph and each poem for months on end before releasing them into the world.

That theme survived as the title of this Wild Expectations ."
