Stars in my pocket like grains of sand

Christian Boltanski
Freaking prolific as all hell in my opinion. He deals with a lot of subject matter, but I find his pieces that deal with the holocaust to be the most poignent. 

This is literally my favorite artist of all time. He is the inspiration for most of my work since I first encountered him.

I’ve never read any of Delany’s works… but I’m young, I have time.

Personal favorite authors: William Gibson - Cory Doctorow - Bruce Sterling - Samuel R. Delany - Neal Stephenson

Seriously half of my book collection alone consists of work by them.

Well if you’re familiar with or enjoy any of the above writers I would definitely check out Delany’s Nova. It was a pretty big influence on Gibson’s Neuromancer and is often considered to be a forerunner to the cyberpunk genre as it features humans interfacing with computer/tech devices. Honestly it’s just a great fucking book; to put it bluntly. Hopefully you’ll check it out and it’ll be your gateway drug into the wonderful world of Delany.

We would get along we’ll. Very well.
