Write-up drew inspiration from William S. Burroughs’s and Brion Gysin’s artistic technique, cut-up. In this version, visitors to the exhibition were asked to pick up a paper (sized A6), write one word on in and then place it among the words already present. Some audience members rearranged the existing words to their own liking, some aimed to add to a story, some wrote down something seemingly random and added to the end of the words. All interpretations were right.
