Infra-thin is impossible to define; it can only be illustrated. The difference between adjectives and nouns is infra-thin. So is the act of forgetting. Other examples from Duchamp include an object at one time and then one second later (the identity principle), the warmth of a seat that has just been left, a stare, people who go through subway gates at the last moment, the whistling sound made by velvet trousers when walking, a painting on glass seen from the unpainted side, or the space between recto and verso. And Infra-Thin Press.

​Infra-Thin Press was founded in 2010 as an autonomous scholarly press by Chadron State College Humanities Professor Thomas Deane Tucker and book designer Martha Blegen-Smith. Together they bring over 35 years of combined publishing experience to Infra-Thin. Our mission is to publish interdisciplinary humanities titles in the chiasms between the humanistic practices of philosophy, literature, art, cinema, and design. All of our books are printed in small paperback format (5x8) with a unique typographical and cover design in interplay with a given title's textual content.
