Abstract
To close this edition, we present an intervention by Michael Prado (Lima, 1988), curatorial director of La Crema, an independent publishing house founded in Peru in 2012, which understands publishing work as an artistic practice. Among their projects are the publication of poems, posters, creation of typographical sources, amongst others. Blind Writing enters this edition of post(s) as an insert, as an independent book, which is produced from a gesture of writing close to performance, for which Prado appropriates the poem Escrito a ciegas, by Martín Adán (Peru, 1908-1985 ) and transcribes it blindly, literally.
