The lies fill the cells; the truth is the shape they leavemendacism · a negative-space manifesto

Below is a grid. The grid is dense with statements. Each statement is false. The arrangement of statements is exact: the cells they do not occupy form a shape.

The shape is the manifesto. It is not stated. It cannot be stated. To state it would be to add another cell — another lie. The truth of mendacism is only what mendacism refuses to fill.
