Synopsis "No Measure"

In No Measure, two entangled scientists attempt to measure, record, and modify a desert on all scales, from a wide valley to a grain of sand. The speaker works with and for another researcher who watches over her from a control room as the speaker tends a desert remediation project. The desert setting is inspired by past and present industrial and ecological disasters as a result of climate change, technological production, and desertification. The scientific task of measurement and documentation on such a scale, and in such a changing landscape, is impossible, and this is layered with the desire to know and be with another through the same lens, with the same language. The repetition required of scientific processes is not unlike romantic obsession. Here, performative acts of measurement create a scientific erotics, an installation the reader moves through, an atmosphere susceptible to weather. Krumrie explores how desire might be thought of as a "self-organized criticality" and the ways in which permutations of scale can be rendered immeasurable by a series of prose poems-a lapidary erotic.
