Revisiting Dead Fingers Talk: The Tape Experiments of William S. Burroughs
listen to your present time tapes and you will begin to
see who you are and what you are doing here mix
yesterday in with today and hear tomorrow your future
rising out of old recordings
everybody splice himself in with everybody else
