 Item
Identifier: CC-59443-55854
Scope and Contents The appearance of this broadsiide simulates a typewriter poem and according to Lange in a personal communication to the Sackners, it was originally composed on a thpewriter. Wikipedia: The Loch Ness Monster is a cryptid, a creature whose existence has been suggested but has not been discovered or documented by the scientific community. It is reputedly a large unknown animal that inhabits Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands. It is similar to other supposed lake monsters in Scotland and elsewhere, though its description varies from one account to the next. Popular interest and belief in the animal's existence has varied since it was first brought to the world's attention in 1933. Evidence of its existence is anecdotal, with minimal and much-disputed photographic material and sonar readings. The most common speculation among believers is that the creature represents a line of long-surviving plesiosaurs. The scientific community regards the Loch Ness Monster as a modern-day myth, and...

Man from Nowhere / Ambrose, Joe ; Wilson, Jerry ; Rynne, Frank ; Burroughs WS ; Gysin B., 1992

 Item
Identifier: CC-26598-27067
Scope and Contents Topic deals with the work of Burroughs and Gysin. This bok is stored in the Burroughs box.Internet: William Burroughs and Brion Gysin blazed a trail of wild experimentation across the Twentieth Century. Their Cut Up Method changed the course of modern fiction and had a profound effect on film and rock music. Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Keith Richards, Genesis P Orridge, and Patti Smith are just some of their musical disciples. Their obsession with the wild heretical actions of Hassan I Sabbah bear witness to their truly rebellious nature. Their love of the Joujouka panic music was total. They challenged conventional notions of morality and paid no attention to the rules of society. This is the only study of the artistic collaborations between these two good friends. It was written by me, Frank Rynne, and Terry Wilson. Frank and I met Terry at a Notting Hill Arts Gallery early in 1992 - by the end of the year we were exhibiting Gysin, Hamri, and Burroughs paintings at the Project Arts...
