In this book we explore how one of his texts can be understood through the responses of different contributors who are from a number of different interdisiplinary fieldsEdvard Munch wrote his whole life, but most of his texts remained in the drawer. In
only an instant, significant voices from a range of different fields – from visual art to music, critique and astrophysics – enter into dialogue with one of these unpublished texts.
