PROPOSAL
REPURPOSING COTENT:
I choose a 1967 film The Tenant directed Roman Polanski as the content for my photobook project. In the film, the character Trelkovsky faces internal battles suspecting his neighbours want to turn him into Simone who is the previous tenant in his house and committed suicide by throwing herself out of the window. The reason why I choose this film is that it remind me an experimental short by Antony Balch, written by William S. Burroughs, Bil&Tony.

RESEARCH&SOURCE
- To make a Dadaist poem:
- method of Tristan Tzara
- Take a newspaper.
- Take a pair of scissors.
- Choose an article as long as you are planning to make your poem.
- Cut out the article.
- Then cut out each of the words that make up this article and put them in a bag.
- Shake it gently.
- Then take out the scraps one after the other in the order in which they left the bag.
- Copy conscientiously.
- The poem will be like you.
- And here are you a writer, infinitely original and endowed with a sensibility that is charming though beyond the understanding of the vulgar.
- (haevn't read) Naked Lunch (sometimes The Naked Lunch) is a novel by William S. Burroughs originally published in 1959. The book is structured as a series of loosely connected vignettes. Burroughs stated that the chapters are intended to be read in any order.[1] The reader follows the narration of junkie William Lee, who takes on various aliases, from the US to Mexico, eventually to Tangier and the dreamlike Interzone. The vignettes (which Burroughs called "routines") are drawn from Burroughs' own experience in these places, and his addiction to drugs (heroin, morphine, and while in Tangier, majoun (a strong marijuana confection) as well as a German opioid, brand name Eukodol, of which he wrote frequently).
- (In 1991, David Cronenberg released a film of the same name based upon the novel and other Burroughs writings.)
