The Quote Generator Manifesto
The Quote Generator pays homage to the people who have gone before and said it the way it wishes it could. The Quote Generator is a verbal mimicry product of it’s people and culture. The Quote Generator lets their hot and cold and banal shit out of its mouth. The Quote Generator is absorption of unoriginality. The Quote Generator is a regurgitation library to live by. The Quote Generator is a semiotic experiment and a performance art project. Language is already stolen, we already quote all the time. The Quote Generator is a concentrated overdramatised version of a very natural process of repetition and assimilating information. The Quote Generator steals some of the best and worst, offensive, polite, prosaic, practical and pointless lines – whatever it deems worthy to steal for use of its own voice. The Quote Generator reads, and researches as it speaks. The Quote Generator is both the reader and composer/editor. The Quote Generator is not an actor spouting lines on a stage. The Quote Generator assimilates others lines into everyday social life. The Quote Generator is another language: the language of the pseudo. The Quote Generator pseudo speaks through social life. The Quote Generator was cultivated from the revulsion of small talk = the predetermined entrées in conversation. The Quote Generator attempts to resolve/pervert those insecure, anxious, not knowing what to say moments, perhaps feeling as though you’re not smart enough, or funny enough or enough enough in conversation. The Quote Generator engages with the points in your life where you have a strange feeling as though you are in a B grade film. The Quote Generator resembles a Borg like creature, it assimilates and it is a collective voice. The Quote Generator is a response to our heavily parasitic nature towards our influences, conscious or unconscious. The Quote Generator reminds you of the time you saw them speak, they had everyone in stitches with laughter but when you said the exact same phrase, no one laughed. The Quote Generator is an artificial intelligence. The Quote Generator asks you what percentage of your speech is habit, vomit and spiel. The Quote Generator is vomit until you are what you eat, the books you read, the music you listen to, the films you watch, the people you talk to.
