papercut copy

Is there something you would like to say? You’re here (maybe) because of a right-brain impulse, because you want a narrative from scratch and ink, because your story doesn’t sound like it should. Because there’s such thing as a Devil comet, and because you’ve seen diamonds on the ocean. You might know of the gaps in the time & space continuum, felt the electric pulses, or seen the psychic fields. Maybe you like what Edgar Rice Burrows is to Rick Owens, what Orlando is to Ann Demeulemeester and Rei Kawakubo, Frankenstein to Lee McQueen and A Clockwork Orange to Jun Takahashi. Maybe you stop when Roland Barthes writes, ‘fashion rests on a violent sensation of time’. You know that clothes can come from stories and stories can come from clothes. Or that they’re just clothes. You believe in thoughts and ideas and tones in the voice. The weight of the ellipsis and the sound of grammar. In text identity and DNA. Papercut Copy is Dave deactivating the HAL 9000 in Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Papercut Copy is a Jenny Holzer installation that reads ‘Everyone’s work is equally important’. Papercut Copy knows that Henry Kissinger’s students now call humanity ‘robot polishers’ — and that’s not what you do. You might know about 'l’appel du vide’. The call of the void. So, tell me, is there something you would like to say?
