I'll post on time when I finish my CE credits

So, i'm reminded a lot of our discussion of White Shadows in that in Humument, there is evidence of the "underwords" against the "overwords" and this time, there is no semblance of censorship, but instead a focus on pasting one piece on top of another.

Humument reminded me of the word "collage" more than any other piece we have read this semester, mainly because it embodies the stereotypical "collage" form, pasting pieces of things-in this case, other texts, against, beside and on top of one another to say something.

I must say, page 2 is my favorite page, due to the disregard for the format of the page with the three pieces of text; and the work seems more cohesive than other texts as well. (I was not going to spend $6.99 to purchase the text on the iPad store, however. The phrase "cheap bastard" comes to mind with me and stuff like that.)
