If you read Adbusters, you’ll be familiar with this collage style. Ross sandwhiches seven pages of collage with a snippet of quoted text “I kept thinking this place is going to blow up” and closes with “Something is about to happen / the leaves are still.” While it may be the point that nothing happens on these pages but a blast of images, a “wonderful little story” about a group of travelling people in an apocalyptic land, and notes that change (social? artistic?) is nigh, I’m annoyed that Ross just yells “fire” to a herd of people who are already standing in front of the fire, watching it burn.
