Ok, trying again, this time from one instance of Corel Photopaint v9 to another. I mention the version because it is old, Old, OLD and the newer ones you may use might not behave the same.

Here's the 'little assembly' a first stab at a cutup from the 2-page spread.

looks like even this sparse collection of sentence fragments cd be assembled differently to make what I think of as a cutup.

But, again, what I really seek is someone's better method than my digital cut and past from one windows-10 app to another.

So, fellow followers of the path of scissoring... I've piled myself out of room for doing trad art so I've been wondering if there's a  good way to cut lines from text and reassemble them starting with a digital image rather than paper. [pls pardon me if this offends y'r mailart sensibilities!]

So, I found this prescriptive blather at the internet archive and screenshot a 2-p spread from it [see above] and opened it in corel photopaint where I cd select rows and, surprisingly, I cd drag a row to an open document in corelDRAW. Next, will be the little assembly but what I REALLY WANT TO ASK is if anyone has a better method. This is S-L-O-W.

a writing machine that shifts one half one text and half the other through a page frame on a conveyor --- the proportion of half one text half another is important corresponding as it does to the two halves of the human organism(shakespear, burroughs etc) permutating through page frames in constantly changing juxtaposition the machine spits out books,plays and poems, the spectators are invited to feed into the machine any pages of their own text in fifty-fifty juxtaposition with any author, any pages of their choice and get provided with results in a few minutes.    wsb(ticket)

I've just learned that there's a very good chance the visual will be in color, but time will tell for sure

John, There's a place to leave the author questions/comments at the link DVS posted.

I wonder if this new ed. of The Third Mind, etc. would include color plates of all the visual material that didn't make it into the original edition?
