Only your dance and your voice house



" In the summer of 1959 Brion Gysin painter and writer cut newspaper articles into sections and rearranged the sections at random. The cut-up method brings to writers the collage, which has been used by painters for fifty years. And used by the moving and still camera. In fact all street shots from movie or still cameras are by the unpredictable factors of passers by and juxtaposition cut-ups. And photographers will tell you that often their best shots are accidents . . . writers will tell you the same. The best writing seems to be done almost by accident but writers until the cut-up method was made explicitó all writing is in fact cut ups. I will return to this pointóhad no way to produce the accident of spontaneity. You can not will spontaneity. But you can introduce the unpredictable spontaneous factor with a pair of scissors."

A pure Renseiw cut-up from a sunken garden in Berlin, with a humble reference to William B. Scissor your self in here, or click on the fairy maiden on the bench. Flowers are transparent, anyway...
