obviously since I'm in Paris and I am me I chose to mark the centenary by going to Breton's grave. His epitaph is je cherche l'or du temps (i seek the gold of time). i wondered if anyone else would be there for the same reason as me but the whole cemetery was deserted.
maybe this is why they're having a big Surrealists exhibition at the pompidou centre? they had loads of great masturbator style wackiness but the most interesting exhibits i saw (apart from the old editions of Maldoror) were Brassaï's photos of Paris at night
there are dada manifestos but they predate the surrealist ones. also another surrealist manifesto by a rival of breton's called Gloy you never hear about him! Stewart home wrote a neoist manifesto I'm pretty sure.
the mad thing is that I've met @mixed_biscuits irl and he's a very nice man. i don't understand why he logs onto dissensus every day around four and besmirches his reputation. i don't understand either why anyone engages with him. you're on the point of making the forum unusable @mixed_biscuits
no, no, no this is all rubbish. the whole point is to innovate. I'm surprised @thirdform, with all the useless crap under that moniker, could swing into this blind alley. en garde!
