gabriel: are you sure
about this? i remember
going to an exhibit of schwitter's works in the mid
70's (part of a series of "german cultural events"
organized by the goethe institute) and it included
schwitter's own (recorded, of course) rendition of the
"ursonate" and other phonetic poems - also, brian eno
samples schwitters/ursonate on his '77 album "before
and after science".

Syntax, like government, can only be obeyed. It is therefore of no use except when you
have something particular to command such as: Go buy me a bunch of carrots. - John Cage
