The vacancy of no-strip is a direct result of the detrimental effect of the capitalistic demands of contemporary society undermining the freedom of the artist.
Commencing with the unrelenting absence of presence, we are presently directed through the means of an intertextual hyperlink to a commentary by the artist informing the noetic ambivalence of presence/no presence. The subtext is clear - should this sublimated message be ignored, presence will ultimately fade into absence - meaning will reside in the void between the artist and the potential audience, and will not be reolved into actuality.
Returned to presence by further intertextual hyperlinkage, we are presented with a traditonal humouresque representation of the continued struggle between Evil and Good - Ultimate Evil, buoyed by capitalistic accumulation of funds, is propelled into the void in search of an ultimate answer. Whether this will be achieved remains to be seen in future texts as it is clear there also exists an absence of noetic import - a mesalliance of cultural significance, if you will, in the misapplication of nutritional inquiry and social nicety.
There is a further poignant and delicate interplay between, on the one hand, the acquisition of capitalistic value resulting in such an expedition, and on the other, the inability of capitalistic venture to adequately nourish the artist, thus threatening to send future text into the void, a situation only increased by the apparent lack of consideration of the subtext by the audience. |
