Publication accompanying the similar named project by Diego Tonus realized together with the Jan Van Eyck Academy Maastricht and Stroom Den Haag. Diego Tonus translated informal encounters he had with an alleged counterfeiter into separate artworks. Each holds a secret within. The series of works meticulously follows a trajectory or narrative of suspicion that gradually unfolds, yet at the same time continues to carry an air of mystery. This publication serves as legal document and body of proof that Tonus has registered the practices and strategies of Anonymous as his ideas in the register of the Benelux Office for Intellectual Property, in order to make them available to an international audience.
