Wow Kaj Wow

Why are we going to the farmer’s market? Sometimes to expectorate is sunshine in darkness like a flat ray in an artificially lit alleyrat Cambonzola equals remotes “and this fish is big or pink” Slasher movie a fond place a pond; an arty one; a proper ice cream palour; A chat: a phatic cat with a frog in his throat – “j’ai une chat dans la gorge” spoilt from conversation of lifted hem (or gifted?) of undercooked flesh flinching for the bunching reaching for the tartar sauce “I seen an organic land like some sort of overworld destination like a peach in a scrap-yard or a chicken tatsed clumsily with a brick in a yard “foot like a windscreenwiper, squashinnit Which way to whiskey? hovers a man in dinosaur costume Slowly cooking meat meat stew Who’s seen a catatonic bat, A transluscent bee, a giraffe you can count on Does anyone remember typewriters? a very vulgar bucket, Caged cheeses liquids in slow rotting punch pockets What do you mean ‘a nice tree’? two fogs tap-dancing in pin-striped suits

Image Fulgurator

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAX_3Bgel7M] 'The Image Fulgurator is a device for physically manipulating photographs. It intervenes when a photo is being taken, without the photographer being able to detect anything. The manipulation is only visible on the photo afterwards. In other words, with the Fulgurator it is possible to have a lasting effect on those kinds of individual moments and events that become accessible to the masses only because they are preserved photographically. In this context the Fulgurator represents a manipulation of visual reality and so targets the very fabric of media memory.'

Steve Evans has created an inward spiral of documentation, lists and more lists of his reading life, then pushed in outward shards forming, when the path is traced like a turtle on an Acorn, a web. Link
