"And what does the money machine eat? It eats youth, spontaneity, life, beauty, and above all, it eats creativity. It eats quality and shits out quantity."

That's another name I need to research. Been hearing it a lot from gnostics.
🤔 could it be that simple? The entropy of quality, which I talk about sometimes. Its do obvious that something is stealing quality from the world and replacing it with bad copies. Is it **_simply_** the money machine doing it, or is the money machine merely a representation for something bigger and more insidious?

Burroughs is on this excellent map (along with many others that I am interested in):

I mostly explored his cut up technique of text writing and formatting.
I'd like to try it. Haven't gotten around to it yet tho
Used this technique on last MTvoid album. Most lyrics are cut ups to some degree.
