If you've ever been an autist about surrealism, you may have encountered this familiar face.
This guy is Antonin Artaud, hes known for conceptualizing the Theatre of Cruelty, which was inspired by Balinese Dance Performances. If you google things you'll get more questions than answers. Whats up with all the ducks? Is this a hecking discworld reference? Are you who you say you are? I'm here today to answer those questions. The main idea of the Theatre of Cruelty was that you gotta ASSAULT THE SENSES OF THE AUDIANCE. I consider myself somewhat of a sensation sampler, and the whole idea is to overwhelm your senses. This can also be used as a form of psychological exploration, when confronted with the extremities of the world you ask alot about your self. WOKE LIBTARDS at the time hated this, known midwit André Breton is quoted as saying that the Theatre was simply a biproduct of Artuad's "radical independence and his uncontrollable personality, perpetually in revolt, brought about his excommunication". Harsh! Artuad also liked politics, he theorized that Schizophrenics are only such because of capitalism. Sorry for waffling, hes just a cool guy.
