Okay,
		Pardon my uh freshness, but doesn't collage construct a
subject and a frame of uh say viewing which could be personified in
order to talk about it, which is a product of the overlapping of
destruction of themes which are subordinate to the thread of uh
salesmanship or propaganda which the original items conveyed. Say
like, the contrast of two items selling you some pants might amplify
an undercurrent of desire for sexual dominance contained in both
items. (Don't start) Also, in case I didn't convey it already, the
idea of constructing new things out of the destruction of packaged
bits of propaganda or salesmanship, uh spectacles perhaps, conveys or
indicates the possibility of subversion. And uh the idea that "them"
could be said to represent the "formless" composite of agreeing slaves
which does none the less have an effect, as in "they say elvis is
alive". So the subject would be one looking at this, and it would be
the objects peripheral effect.

Uh,
