Today in labor history April 28, 1896: Tristan Tzara was born. He was a Romanian-French poet, journalist, playwright, literary and art critic, film director. He co-founded the anti-establishment Dada movement. During Hitler’s rise to power, he participated in the anti-fascist movement and the French Communist Party. In 1934, Tzara organized a mock trial of Salvador Dalí because of his fawning over Hitler and Franco. The surrealists Andre Breton, Paul Éluard and René Crevel helped run the trial. In the 1940s, Tzara lived in Marseilles with a large group of anti-fascist artists and writers, under the protection of American diplomat Varian Fry. These included Victor Serge, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Andre Breton and Max Ernst. Later he joined the French Resistance, writing propaganda and running their pirate radio station. After the Liberation of Paris, he wrote for L'Éternelle Revue, a communist newspaper edited by Jean-Paul Sartre. Other contributors to the newspaper included Louis Aragon, Éluard, Jacques Prévert and Pablo Picasso. Varian Fry, and his communal home for radicals in hiding, was portrayed in the historical drama series “Transatlantic.”

The #Dadaist Town Crier proclaims:

Hear Yes! Hear No!
Hear Yea! Yeah Yeah!
Howls the deal -
The philosophy of the library
there are no virgin honey penguins
found in the bathroom -
they rise and vanish, an oblivious ghost,
shadows of life, whose very souls lost,
When the inmate stirs, the birds retire discreetly
From the window-ledge, whereon they whistled sweetly

#DadaistJournal: Ridiculously Good Ideas

Started a new project, because I couldn't just tidy the room. Instead of emptying the room of lots of paper in a quick efficient manner, I am now accumulating cut-up text, and use them to re-purpose the pages of word lists, to paste into a #DadaistArtJournal. 😂

You can read the full sorry account of how I ended up with this new thing to add to my list, as well as read the first Dadaist cut-up poem in this dubious endeavour on my Asemic Tarot blog.

@colorblindcowboy @ksigler Curious to know what they mean by #AIAssistants. The #Artwork is not unique, obviously based on the style and content of actual artists.
They are charging for the #magazine, but artists can share their #AIArt for free.

Perhaps, an AI will purchase a subscription, and provide a review in the style of #TristanTzara and #KarlMarx? #Dadaism
