destroying books-I know it happens but when confessed to, it sounds like heresy!

"Ancient Future" by DANGER aka Dan Wininger is really good in my opinion. Published by Input Error, if you don't have it already.

By the way, most of the stuff, Input Error puts out, is of high quality!

Do you guys have some recommendations on text/video/audio resources about about the act of collage itself, be it "techniques", people doing it, interviews, articles about artists or something like that?
(Crossthreading) Documentaries and podcasts even if not solely focused on collage art too are welcome.

Latest one I made (cut-and-paste only)

I really like collages, though I have not been making them for a long time. I enjoy the process of cutting out pictures and text made by others, and then compiling them into my own creation. I especially like to use weird, unedited pieces of text, and clear tape as materials.

I actually came in second place at the Militant Zone art contest in 2018 (http://militant.zone/art2018/). Supposedly the winners were going to have their work displayed at the Asgardsrei 2018 festival, but I was never able to find any pictures that would confirm whether or not they were. I would really appreciate it if someone can shed any light on this.

Wow this stuff is all awesome! Reminds me of some of the NSK State art that I have seen.

Has anybody bought the Rozz Williams Art Book? I have seen a video of someone paging through it, and it doesn't seem to have that much collage art. I'm sure there are some decent flyers and other background info, but I guess it's a pretty penny, so I'm not sure if I'd buy it yet.

Some great stuff in here, thanks for all the links.

My own collages are pretty simple and basic, and mostly made up of faces from found photos and flowers or buildings from ol dpostcards I've collected. Here's a few if you fancy a look: https://sadneck.wordpress.com/visual/

i think you've got a good thing going. I like this one especially. The idea of these things in a frame at an art gallery have a certain quaintness to them that would be complimentary to eachother as a body of work in a solo showing, especially if you stuck to mainly found photos. I personally have collected a number of found photos as "ready mades". I just like the graininess of them, especially with amateur portraiture. It would be interesting to see how your work evolves. I am not good at minimalism. I tend to be a chaotic maniac with collage and try to cram too many ideas into one piece.
