Sorry, We're Vacant by DADAjunk / Jon Lemon We're so pretty, Oh so pretty; we're vacant. The work basically consists in writing down, preferably in your own magical alphabet, and self invented blessed ink, the un-touched-by-hand, mysterious and multicoloured shapes and forms of your subconscious mind. Now usually there are a number of preliminary exercises that pre-seed the writing (drawing painting) but the key element is to achieve a state of vacuity, to enter the void. This can be done through exercises that lead to physical exhaustion, through sexual release, or by several other activities, such as dervish dancing, alcohol, drugs or chaotic babbling. The state that the practitioner is trying to reach is often described as: I Don't Give a Flying Fax State: as the artist, now empty and vacant and void, gives up all aesthetic, morally pathetic and socially inculcated opinions relating to the value of his work. Become Vacant And I will Enter Thee: Is the commandment. Dada is a tragedy, a complete loss of individuality, a complete loss of self. Could someone please pass the cakes. DADA DADA DRUNK DADA DADA
