There, I said it. oops - Ich sagt! (or would I say, "Ich sagte?" what's the right form here? Ich hat das gesagt? That sounds so boringly wordy, I know there's a shorter way to say it. Ich sagt ihnen? Meine Deutsch is sehr crusty.)

Ich mochte "sieben sieben sieben sieben sieben ".

3. When do I NOT feel dadaistic?

When is my life anything other than pure unalloyed DADA?

[Dirk39]

6. Da, da, da

Dada is a new direction in art. You can tell this because up to now nobody knew anything about it, and tomorrow everyone in Zurich will be talking about it. Dada comes from the dictionary. It's terribly simple. In French it means "hobbyhorse." In German: "addio," "get off my back," "see you later!" In Romanian: "Absolutely, you're right, that's it. Yeah, really, let's do it." And so forth.

An international word. Only a word, and the word as movement. It's just awful. If you make it into a direction in art, that must mean you want to get rid of complications. Dada psychology, dada literature, dada bourgeoisie, and you, most honored poets, who have always composed with words but never composed the word itself. Dada world war without end, dada revolution without beginning, dada you friends and alsopoets, posterior evangelists. Dada Tzara, dada Huelsenbeck, dada m'dada, dada mhm' dada, dada Hue, dada Tza.

How do you achieve eternal bliss? By saying dada. How do you become famous? By saying dada. With noble attitude and fine deportment. Until you go crazy, until you pass out. How can you get rid of everything infernalish and journalish, everything nice and neat, everything priggish and brutish and foppish? By saying dada. Dada is the world soul, dada is the point, dada is the world's best lily-milk soap. Dada Herr Rubiner, dada Herr Korrodi, dada Herr Anastasius Lilienstein.

Which is to say: the hospitality of the Swiss is to be valued above all things, and in aesthetics what matters is the norm.

I'm reading poems that intend nothing less than to do without language. Dada Johann Fuchsgang Goethe, Dada Stendhal. Dada Buddha, Dalai Lama, Dada m'dada, Dada m'dada, Dada mhm' dada. What matters is connection, and first interrupting it a little. I don't want words that other people have invented. All the words have been invented by other people. I want my own nonsense, and the corresponding vowels and consonants along with it. If the vibration is seven cubits long, I want words that fit it, seven cubits long. Herr Schulze's words are only two and a half centimeters long.

So now you can clearly see how articulated language develops. I just let the sounds fall where they may. Words emerge, shoulders of words, legs, arms, hands of words. Ow, oy, oo. You shouldn't let too many words show up. A verse is an opportunity to get by without words and without language as far as possible. This accursed language, it sticks to dirt like stockbrokers' hands that have worn down coins. I want the word where it stops and where it starts.

When each thing has its word, the word itself has become a thing. Why can't a tree be called pluplusch, and pluplubasch when it's been raining? And why does it have to be called anything at all? The word, the word, the woe's the worst you ever heard, the word, gentlemen, is a first-class public concern.

4. no, but I've often felt ignorant because I don't know what "dada" is

???

[Dirk39]

9. ignoporant you are....

nignorant in a beautifull way. you're just babba if yu don'T understand da da. Baba is accepted like dada. There's nothing to understand. Understanding equals oppression.

The tiny copy we publish at present, we owe to our initiative and the help of our friends in France, ITALIEN and Russia. It will characterise the activities and interests of the cabaret, whose whole intention is aimed at remembering, surpassing the War and the native countries, the few independent people who live other ideals. The next goal of the artists which are here united is the publication of a Revue Internationale. La revue paraître à Zürich et portera le nom "DADA". ("Dada") Dada Dada Dada Dada.

Dadadadada, BABA too,
Dirk

13. Go do some acid and put on a Gong album

The best Dadaist album has to be Soft Machine Volume II. They were one of Britain's first psychedelic bands, along with Pink Floyd (the early, innovative Pink Floyd) and Tomorrow.
