new broadsheet:
Editor: A Mutation

Graphic poem.

derek beaulieu's assembled 'Editor' text experiment reads very much like a small script... after reading it, I was inspired to expand on his research, composing a playful remix/mutation using his collage of words as a starting point for a collage gesture of my own.

Sourcing from various Batman comics from the 1970's/80's, "... a Mutation" provides more than a scenic backdrop to beaulieu's exhaustive procedural distillation: by layering inspiration and outcome at many levels, the work knots time and places history around its own neck.
