FAKE FLEISCH
First, you take a dry mixture of soy-protein powder and wheat flour, add water and dump it into an industrial extruder, which is essentially a gigantic food processor. (You have to climb a ladder to get to the hole at the top.) At first, the mixture looks like cake batter. But as it's run through the gears of the extruder and heated to precisely 346°F (175°C), the batter firms up and forms complex striations. It took Hsieh and Huff many years to get the temperature right, and it also took years to discover how to cool the soy cake very quickly, before it could melt.
“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.” –Teilhard de Chardin “Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.” — Franz Kafka Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what jean-luc Godard said: ‘it’s not where you take things from - it’s where you take them to.’ — Jim Jarmusch (source) "Allegories are, in the realm of thoughts, what ruins are in the realm of things" — Walter Benjamin (The Origin of German Tragic Drama)
Is he ‘un artiste’, ‘een schatje’, ‘ein Possenmacher’ or ‘a rambling n*gger in lederhosen? Find out for yourself as you enter the wonderful world of Cocopierre. Where nothing is what it seems to be, or is(n’t) it?
