"I see this
as first
an
anti-aesthetic
gesture,
similar
to the
one
Duchamp
showed us
with his
Readymades,
but
I also see
it
as employing
what
Derrida
might call
a
`signature-effect'
that brands
the
ephemeral
creator's
imprint
on the
`material'
`at hand'
(the `bytes'
`at hand')."

"...the readymade can be seen as a sort of irony...
it's a form of denying the possibility of defining art."

Marcel Duchamp
