I am just trying to rip people off.
It's a new PR concept.
Recently someone pushed a book entirely made up of blank pages which was to be understood as a "message for people to start writing".
The leader of the Aoun sect in Japan, besides putting nerve gas in the subway, sold the water of his bath for forty dollar a glass.
And people actually bought it.
This british "artist" got a very hefty subvention for showing a cow sawed in half, lenghtwise, and dipped in formol.
It's supposed to convey a message of some kind.
Another is making "works of art" out of real food. The stuff rots, and that is supposed to be magnificent, besides being smelly and attracting flies.
So, mine is a newer concept, even more revolutionary, aiming at making people aware that they are, mostly, extremely dumb.
And paying for it.
At least I am frank enough to say openly what all those other crooks don't have the balls to admit. Basically that they are here to steal money from others.
Someone said once, I think it's Beaumarchais, that if he was nice to most people it's because he considered them as animals and it was like being nice to a cow.
I feel less and less inclined to be nice with cows.
If they're ready to pay forty dollars for a glass of soapy, dirty water, they're ready to pay much more for the idea that a book is there, somewhere, and no one is going to read it.
Vae victis.
