13. Cut-Ups
3 years ago
I have always liked the voice of William S. Burroughs and I’ve always wanted to do something with the Origin and Theory of the Tape Cut-Ups clip.
Now I have.
Also includes a cut-up example by Brion Gysin.

Observation: Both the first text cut-ups and later the tape cut-ups were mechanical methods using analog material.
Question: Has anyone written any code, perhaps using a database of sounds, to approximate this method? If so, it raises once again the Burrough's question: How random is random?
I've been actually planning on doing something like that for a long time. Maybe I should get back to working on that project.
Would the result be 'meaningful' or even interesting without the need to overcome intent?
"How random is random?" Burroughs
"What is the purpose of purposelessness?" Cage
