Six Statements on the death of Jean-Luc Godard
A Toast
proposed
by
Her Magnificence the Vice-Curator of the Collège de ’Pataphysique
& Benign Inquisitor of the London Institute
for the Celebrations of 1 Absolu 150.
Pronounced
in absentia, by the Vice-Rogator, Milie von Bariter.
My friends, optimates and members of the Collège de ’Pataphysique,
I should like to propose a toast.
The
New Year 150 marks
149
years since the birth of Alfred Jarry, a
just
cause for celebration indeed…
Nevertheless,
the optimates and members of
the
Collège are distinguished not by their
admiration
for Jarry, however great it may
be,
but rather by all that the apostrophe signifies.
So
let us drink instead to this symbolic
representation
of the Science as embodied
in
our belovéd Collège de ’Pataphysique:
Vive
l’Apostrophe!
