Someone is embroidering the Chinese word 'wen,' which means language or culture. Machines make marks that look like language. A poet and a sinologist talk about Ernest Fenollosa, whose essay, 'The Chinese Written Character as a Medium for Poetry ' has been an inspiration to poets and an embarrassment to sinologists. Part of HEAP, a series of experimental portraits of Westerners who have studied, imagined, loved, and misunderstood China.
