Connaissez-vous la première oeuvre à regarder les yeux fermés ?
On doit cette oeuvre à Brion Gysin ! Alors que le musée d’Art Moderne de Paris lui consacre sa première rétrospective, focus sur une figure centrale de la Beat Generation – restée longtemps un secret bien gardé de la contre-culture américaine – autour d’une de ses oeuvres majeures.

Cut-up as a method of fragmentation and reassembly — language, sound, and meaning broken into pieces and reconfigured through chance, rhythm, and montage.
From Burroughs & Gysin’s experiments to modern sound collage and experimental music, it’s less about narrative and more about structure emerging from disruption.

William S. Burroughs delivering his keynote address on December 1st, the first night at New York City’s Entermedia Theatre, during the sold-out, three-day Nova Convention, held on November 30, December 1, and 2, 1978.

In this the legendary 1978 Nova Convention, we hear interviews with organizer/poet John Giorno, followed by the uncut Nova Convention panel discussion unheard for decades. Moderator Les Levine masterfully guides panelists William S. Burroughs, Robert Anton Wilson, Timothy Leary and Brion Gysin. Listen to them re-imagining science fiction and foreseeing a culture yet to come.
The Nova Convention was a three-day event, taking place in New York City on November 30, December 1 and December 2, 1978. Intended as a homage to William S. Burroughs, the “convention” included seminars, music performances, readings and more. Attending were an odd mixture of academics, publishers, writers, artists, punk rockers and counterculture disciples. The event had a small hitch. The organizers had announced Keith Richards’ attendance, which made the event a sellout. Richards’ last minute cancellation, however, gave the event an antagonistic oscillation between performer and audience.
The series was originally produced by Giorno Poetry Systems for WBAI radio. The 2013 restoration comes from John Giorno’s private tapes. The effort is to restore, as completely as possible, the entire three-day event for for broadcast by the Clocktower Gallery radio station: https://clocktower.org/show/nova-convention-1978-the-third-mind

two lectures by william burroughs
https://youtu.be/d-2a0Rti6-Y?si=KioGJXflz24OVOLE
Audio recording of a lecture & writing class with students at Naropa University. Poet Allen Ginsberg is also in the audience. Burroughs covers topics including paranormal phenomena, magic, synchronicity, precognition, dreams, his cut-ups technique for writing, & he answers many questions from students & from Ginsberg in a Q & A. He reads from some of his fiction & non-fiction writings. The woman who asks many questions near the end & thanks him at the end I believe is Anne Waldman of Naropa University.
https://youtu.be/xKfS1xemH6U?si=tiykZp1l2fnq2Bli
This audio recording complements the previous one.
In this recording Burroughs covers the cut-up method of writing in some detail, & reads from his own cut-up writings, as well as some by Burroughs’ sometime collaborator Brion Gysin. Burroughs describes how some cut-ups appear to be uncanny prognosticators, accurately predicting future events, according to Burroughs.
He also describes experiments with audio cut-ups using tape recorders. He had intended to play recordings of some of Gysin’s tape experiments at this lecture, but the tapes had not arrived on time. Instead, Burroughs describes some of the cut-up tape experiments.
And he covers other tape experiments that interest him conducted by paranormal investigators & what today is commonly known as EVP (electronic voice phenomena), where tape recorders are supposed to record unexplained mysterious human voices though no such sound input is available to the recorder. Burroughs refers to these as “Paranormal Voices” experiments/phenomena.
Burroughs also makes reference to dreams, the last words of Dutch Schultz, Shakespeare, computers, Homer, Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, T.S. Eliot, & Carl Jung.
There’s a long Q & A session with students at the end.#AllenGinsberg #AnneWaldman #audio #audioRecording #BrionGysin #BurroughsLectures #CarlGustavJung #computers #cutUp #cutUp #cutUpTechnique #cutUpsTechnique #cutup #dreams #DutchSchultz #electronicVoicePhenomena #EVP #GertrudeStein #Homer #JamesJoyce #Jung #lecture #lectures #magic #NaropaUninversity #Omero #paranormalPhenomena #precognition #QA #QuestionAnswer #Shakespeare #synchronicity #TSEliot #tapeExperiments #WilliamBurroughs #writingClass

‘ArtsHebdoMédias’, 30 mai 2025“Le parcours conçu par Val Ravaglia, conservateur du département « art international » à la Tate Modern, offre un vaste panorama sur les relations art/technologie avant Internet, lorsque l’ordinateur ne faisait pas encore partie de l’équipement des foyers ni même de la plupart des ateliers d’artiste.

kurt cobain meets william burroughs
Kurt Cobain was…
…first exposed to Burroughs’ work in high school, it heavily influenced Cobain’s writing when he started enforcing the Beat writer’s “cut-up” method. First introduced to Burroughs by artist Brion Gysin and inspired by a similar technique used by Dadaists by the 1920s, the collage-like approach mixes words and phrases that are pieced together, often creating juxtaposing text or narratives.
“My lyrics are total cut-up,” said Cobain.”I take lines from different poems that I’ve written. I build on a theme if I can, but sometimes I can’t even come up with an idea of what the song is about.”

reTraces:
La prochaine chose que je perçus, c’est que le téléphone sonnait devant la porte de ma chambre dans le vieil hôtel où je logeais.
Je me réveille et je tends la main vers mon smartphone, mon oreille capte le claquement insistant de l'amorce de la bande qui tournerait toujours sur l’UHER à côté de mon lit.
Je me retournai pour l’éteindre et vérifie les batteries des 2 machines. -

Wake: I am in the Interzone
Tangier building design and thesis investigation
Perceiving Tangier through an investigation of William Burroughs’ dreamlike writing and Brion Gysin’s technique of cut-ups, the city manifests itself as a parallel, as an other. This thronging sea of relations between, across, and through the urban fabric become permutations of Tangier’s material reality; a pin-cushion of imperial flags, camouflaged and flecked with the wear of its fluctuating history. The undertones of colonialism reverberate in its streets, in its language, in its law. —→ https://www.e-architect.com/edinburgh/wake-interzone-esala-graduation-project

❝ “Repetitive yet always featuring distinct markings,” points out the University of Delaware exhibition notes, “[Brion Gysin's 'roller grid' prints] represented an idiosyncratic system, an irrational order, combining repetition and chance. The principle of the ‘rolling grid’ (endless repetition with endless variation) can be seen at work in many of Gysin’s and Williams S. Burrough’s projects, including the Dream Machine.” ❞ → https://flashbak.com/brion-gysins-dream-machine-the-only-work-of-art-you-look-at-with-your-eyes-closed-436094/

This #SimonDwyer edited book was THE gateway drug / validation - it was passed around school & sent countless young brains off the rails.
