DADA expression

DADA is more significant if you try to adopt it as a personal ethos: But don't be dishonest. Practice brutal honesty in silence. In cooking, put the least likely and most uncommon ingredients together. In music combine sounds that are alien and hostile to each other. In fashion, insist on wearing the wrong size clothes with color that makes no sense. Metaphorically "throw pearls before the swine" and then howl at the traffic light until you get a green arrow. Tristan Tzara has already mastered poetry and prose, but you could line your birdbath with a dictionary and then practice saxophone on the water pipe, or develop an entirely new method of thought..
