Additionally, you can win death videos/poetry visuals and free spins. Some are rather scared of this creature's forecasting tone, while others exalt in the absurdist joy of the way all stories are interchangeable, interrelated and happily random.

DADA TO GO bundles these different traces in an audio text which lets the DADA groups act within an environment which refers to computer games and makes DADAism get a move on. For: Boredom was in the beginning of DADA … (Source: kunstradio.at)
