Cut Up

"All writing is in fact cut-ups. A collage of words read, heard, overheard. What else? Use of scissors renders the process explicit and subject to extension and variation. Clear classical prose can be composed entirely of rearranged cut-ups. Cutting and rearranging a page of written words introduces a new dimension into writing enabling the writer to turn images in cinematic variation. Images shift sense under the scissors smell images to sound sight to sound to kinesthetic." william burroughs

From A to B

We are all so complicated, and then we die. We are a subject one day, with our vanities, our loves, our worries, and then one day, abruptly, we become nothing but an object, an absolutely disgusting pile of shit. We pass very quickly from one stage to the next. It's very bizarre. It will happen to all of us, and fairly soon too. We become an object you can handle like a stone, but a stone that was someone.

—Christian Boltanski

We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.

i saw this film art, in centre de pompidou in paris last year.

mesmerised i wondered who was watching in awe and who in a sick curiosity.
that kind of curiosity which provokes people to slow down as they pass a wreckage, or stare at people in an a&e waiting room. human nature is to be attracted to that which we would never want to see.

you may feel you're above others.

i do miss making art with you mily lellor.

painting in miniture

sometimes i like to paint very small.

it's probably about the size it's about on your screen, and has it's own mini easel.

sometimes it's nice to be so concentrated in on such a small space, you lose yourself in every tiny mark made.

every brush stoke counts

in equality

to the next.
