On a plinth, black bendy light attached, black box on top, top of box is glass with black painted vignette [on inside so cant be wiped off?], and one side of box is removed and has black material which has a glove built in like in hospitals or clean rooms. So everything is very dark. You put your hand into the glove that allows access to the box so you can move things around inside in order to see them pushed up close to the glass so you can see them. Inside this box is ribbons of black paper interspersed with some cream strips of paper that have words on them — I am thinking lines of poetry. Rather than numbering them, I think I still want to have a ‘recommended’ order — so on the one hand they will seem important individually, like they could be fortunes [paper strips with phrases] but on the other hand you have some idea that they might form something. I will indicate this by doing a gradient on the paper so each strip gets progressively darker [or maybe the reverse]. Consider ‘handedness’ since if glove is on a side, even though paper inside doesnt matter, the mounted light or the orientation of plinth to wall might. Also maybe a thumbless glove or maybe just a ‘pocket’ in the material so there is no obvious way to _grab_ the paper pieces.
