i make a cut-up out of writing, where the word is cut-out,it is maximum to the minimum, of dark heavy silence,i picked it up in soft machine, a composite material on flat screen sky, like broken words of cut-rate propaganda,white space automatic photographs, like i make meaning to fit what i say, flicker image of past-present time,also planet noise return
as echo[echo] & replay the infected writing of wsb.

practice again, make some noise, write it down as cut-up, that comes out as vegetable mind, just let the answer come to you, a place of invisible material, fabricated in sometime forgotten film>>>>>>

Hello, this group intrigued me so I joined recently. Can you please fill me in on what the group is/does? I understand it is about cutting but it there something in particular you are looking for? Do you then just share your pieces here? Do you have collaborations or swaps? Thanks for your help!

Carl Baker, I am fascinated by your piece "bookWORK". Did you do all the mark making? It's a lovely work of art!

Hello, Terry.

I've done a LOT of cutups by separating texts into ~4" lines and reassembling them in an attempt to generate cutups which may be read and sound slightly sensible but more like totally messed up. Here's a link:

Others may do things differently. William S. Burroughs is one famous practitioner. I think of them as collages of text.

Y'r ol' Bud,

Fike

I published a book in 1973 - cut-up texts assembled into visual poems, a rare item now:

Fike, thanks so much for the helpful information and the link! I absolutely love text and collage so this is perfect. Some of the photos remind me of pieces I've done in the past that people called "found text" or "found poetry". And yes, it was very messed up. :-) Thanks again!  I appreciate the help. 

Your book is indeed rare now, John. It would be fun and interesting to read. Thank you for sharing the link.

miscellaneous ///////

with all the rich variety of an old word horde

pretend an interest in single sex protoplasm

nothing is true, everything is latah

most disgustin' thing i ever stand for and aft

it is every man for himself in the upper a-fendi

i got short count and heavy pan pipes

don't let that out, don't show them time flak

ride music back, stay out of birth and death

raging time-life-fortune virus

word-image people of operation total disposal

all agents defect, all subjects disappear.

end

Part of a new music score Deserts in Mascara - 

EXPRESS cut-up

subway broke out every language

displacement into orbit process

sweet home movement to flood it with replicas

message of total disposal, death dwarfs wait transfer

and i am mapping a photo, click-click of old newspapers

all appropriations are channeled into time level of course

the information quickly down to millions of image images

finally into view, a different reality, no true real reality.

end.

so get with the cut-up........

cut-up word&image

text/

the electro-magnetic transformation of my word horde,

writing projected in a blast of dead language,

intersections inside-out,

shift word lines with random letters,

statement cut-up at this point,

infinite permutations of dynamic disintegration,

intentional propaganda in black virus,

lost signal of the disinformation bureau.

Here's my add to Jon Foster's add'n'passon 'book' [single quotes bcs the pages are 0.0625" thick] which I'm sending to DK Altschul!

Serendipity has brought me here.  What wonders there are amongst its few pages.  There are more than a few bright spirits at work though I have never had much success this way myself.  I seem to be missing an essential portion of the technique and suspect  there is less of the random than is claimed?

The internal/eternal voice of my mother always chides me for wasting time on nonsense and yet . . . 

Oh how I hate computers!  I have just found: https://stickbucket.com/cut-up-technique-generator/  It seems to work.  Here is an extract from my first attempt (with no changes).

It seems that robots, as well as those mythical chimpanzees, can come up with literature.

I particularly liked 'bellydream baloon' which seems to hold a world of possibilities?

cut-up generator= gibberish,

the cut-up technique is the 3rd mind at work,

original text-artist,creator-the new text.

cut-up the present and the future leaks out.
