My response to Cut-up method

After reading the three pages article about Cut-up method, I have an idea that this reading and the first reading that we did before (use of forms) can be fragmented into pieces and be recombined into a “new” article.
The basic idea of this reading introducing the Cut-up method is quite the same as the Use of form reading. In this article, the artist Burrough not just focused on “recombination”; he emphasis the “randomness”. Instead of focusing on preexisting objects or artworks, he used lots of textual elements to explain his ideas. The largest difference is the “consciousness” of artists in making the artwork. Like photographers and writers, their best works may be accidents. Unlike the artists mentioned in Use of forms who may have plans before making the artwork, accidental happenings are the premier idea that Burrough suggested.
However, I also found some similar ideas that I have learned throughout the whole class. “Poetry is for everyone” have been mentioned at least three times in the article. For me, I think the sentence is meaning: Art belongs to everyone. Everyone can be an artist and artworks are subjective and unable to please everyone on earth. Artworks are very personal products of artists, therefore, as Burrough mentioned: there maybe special meanings or code messages for the cutter himself/ herself.
