mette woller - an annotation of hip hop in contemporary art lyrics

Loading...

you see two decks and a mixer
but i see the bigger picture

well if you livin in the world today
you be hearing the slang that the wu-tang say

in his entire vocabulary corpus, shakespeare uses 28,829 words, suggesting he knew over 100,000 words and arguably had the largest vocabulary ever. in total, he invented 5,170 unique words

in comparison, gza spilled 6,426 unique words with his liquid tongue. stressing more than ever that: how can hip hop be dead if wu-tang is forever?

in recent years hip hop has expanded its own field by i.e. articulations of its h0m-phobic culture and its distinctive mainstream form that penetrates and adopts other cultural areas

as hip hop overflows and spills into the realm of contemporary art, its tropes and ideas balance between encoded languages. liquid swords suggests looking at the concept of annotation as a tool for investigating that movement or tendency and the new potential forms and structures that can arise

annotation is a type of metadata attached to text and image, and is often an open source format of describing, -n-lysing and interpreting elements in a cl-ster of data which seems impenetrable or inconceivable and which may relate to a specific sociality or culture

annotation serves then, as the form in which one can familiarise oneself with the codes inherent in a culture: be it hip hop, the much chastised language of the art world, that of critical theory or philosophy
