smoking carriage. One would serve as well as all. The journey at<br />

night. The journey in variable daylight. The eyes <strong>of</strong> people are drawn<br />

towards light.<br />

There would be an audience for this film. The Electric Guitar Feedback and<br />

Drone soundtrack could accompany it, or the two events could be performed<br />

separately, thus maximising income from ticket receipts. The same audience<br />

would attend both events.<br />

Anti-neutral clothing: different shoes, one-legged trousers, one-<br />

armed shirts; extended - half-beard, make-up (different coloured<br />

eyes, lips, random splurges). The aim should not be to beautify. (cf.<br />

Giacomo Balla, Il Vestito Antineutrale (Anti-Neutral Clothes)).<br />

Picabia again.<br />

I meet Genesis P-Orridge (and others, including Cosey Fanni Tutti) at a studio in Brighton.<br />

We engage in some artwork together. I am in Brighton to take part in an event that is being<br />

staged in a former COUM Transmissions studio. I don’t know if this is the reason for my<br />

meeting with Genesis, or if our meeting is a coincidence. The meeting is friendly at first, but<br />

as our artwork progresses, Genesis tries to persuade me to use a dark watery liquid in the<br />

work. The liquid has pieces <strong>of</strong> submerged wood in it. I refuse to use the liquid, wary <strong>of</strong><br />

Genesis’ sinister intent. We explore the magical power <strong>of</strong> incantations - the Lord’s Prayer<br />

amongst them (I recognise this with gratitude).<br />
