The poetics of wonder, of ingenuity, of the metaphor, tend to establish this inventive task of the contemporary human, who sees in the work not an object or a space of obvious relationships to enjoy as beautiful, but a mystery to investigate, a task to be pursued, a stimulus to the vivacity of the imagination.-Umberto Eco, The Open Work, 1965
