Odd arrangements and funny solutions are the proof of evolutionary paths--paths that a sensible God would never tread."

No one lives in this room/
without confronting the whiteness of the wall/
behind the poems, planks of books,/
photographs of dead heroines./
Without contemplating last and late/
the true nature of poetry. The drive/
to connect. The dream of a common language.
--Adrienne Rich

Out of the closets and into the museums, libraries, architectural monuments, concert halls, bookstores, recording studios and film studios of the world. Everything belongs to the inspired and dedicated thief. . . . Words, colors, light, sounds, stone, wood, bronze belong to the living artist. They belong to anyone who can use them. Loot the Louvre! A bas l'originalité, the sterile and assertive ego that imprisons us as it creates. Vive le sol--pure, shameless, total. We are not responsible. Steal anything in sight.
--William Burroughs
