[NetBehaviour] Move a text, break up the house
Dear all, Today i write you to send you a text on Kenneth Goldsmith, related to his presence at The influencers Festival: Move a text, break up the House Does it still make sense to invoke literary originality in the internet era? Kenneth Goldsmith spoke about this at the Festival Internacional du Livre de Arte et du Film de Perpignan (FILAF) this summer. Alicia Kopf tells us about it in his article on appropriationism, intertextual dialogue and literary practice from a curatorial point of view in which there is room for textual emancipation and shared inspiration. Her account ends with an excerpt from an unpublished poem by Goldsmith. This week, Kenneth Goldsmith will be at the CCCB as a guest of The Influencers festival.
