Cut Up Method

After reading about the Cut-Up Method of Brion Gysin I learned that the cut up method is practically everywhere. It talks mainly about film and writing. Film for example can have many different interpretations depending on how the film is shown. If you cut it up and rearrange it it can have a completely different message. It can go from advising teens not to smoke to showing that all teens grow up to be smokers. There is a point made that all works of writing are made from the cut up method. A writer doesn't sit down and instantly have a 300 page book in his head. Writing is just a collage of words. The cut up method is seen in everyday life. It ranges from movies, to commercials, to shows, to anything on the internet, books. It is everywhere and we are all influenced by it.
