Nothing is never enough, or is it too much?

Thanks non! Nothing arrived yesterday.

Apparently there was something called "nothingism" or, approximately, nitchevokij in Russia around the time of Dada. Does anyone know about them?

Comment by Ilya Semenenko-Basin 14 hours ago: Hi, Oberdada Jr.

The Wikipedia page can be translated by the translator that is built into the browser. I have a "Translate" button in my browser. However, the articles in English are just as informative. By the way, this is the tombstone of the poet Sergei Sadikov, the leader of the Nichevoki band. After Sadikov's tragic death under a tram, the band disbanded. Apparently, everything depended on the leader.

Comment by Oberdada Jr. 14 hours ago: Thanks Ilya for the links. Once again I realise what a pity it is that I understand practically no russian (after having tried to read the wikipedia page).

There is literature about these guys in English. If I try, I can find more literature on the topic.

Regards, Ilya
