From the CD "Noises and Whispers in Avant Gardes"
Lajos Kassák (painter, publisher and writer) made several visual poems with newspaper fragments and the superimposition of letters and graphics; in this poem, "noises" are interpreted as interferences of the media. He was co-founder of the activist movement where they declared in 1915 : "We do not accept things as they are! Artists and writers have to return to be workers of the workers, soldiers of the soldiers". The interpretation of the poem has been made using several audio tracks with different voices according to a simultaneous reading of visual poetry.
