"Voodling is a state of mind. That is why it transforms itself according to conditions and events. Voodling applies itself to everything, and yet it is nothing, it is the point where the yes and the no and all the opposites meet, not solemnly in the castles of human philosophies, but very simply at street corners, like dogs and grasshoppers. Like everything in life, Voodling is useless. Voodling is without pretension, as life should be. Perhaps you will understand me better when I tell you that Voodling is a virgin microbe that penetrates with the insistence of air into all the spaces that reason has not been able to fill with words or conventions."

Pondering about certain elements in Tzara's Dadaism lecture, Sam Renseiw proceeded to cut-up recent footage of French bric a brac on a Copenhagen street and an excerpt of an art video sequence into an oneiric voodle.
