origami wordgame, again: ... coming up with new blah-blah-ka's like Elektonika, Klassika, Minimalistika, Maximalistika and Stokka... - A179
Origami Republika came to my attention through an Origami Teknika track
on the Rock Furore-cd (I guess there was also an interview in the magasine
it came with).
I was doing my own strange productions at the time and felt very close
to the 'policy' surrounding Origami Republika. I didn't know the entire
system, but appreceated the anonymity and artistic freedom it was all
based on.
I actually send a demo to the 'Church Street' adress many years ago,
never got a reply but received a weird KAtalog that possibly confused
more than it revealed.
In the start - as so many potential agents before me - I was sitting
around flipping the origami wordgame, coming up with new blah-blah-ka's
like Elektonika, Klassika, Minimalistika, Maximalistika and Stokka...
then I realised it was more important to focus on my sound work.
Origami Republika to me had some 2000-kind of punk's 'Do It Yourself!'
attitude. Many people misunderstood punk thinking it was about copying
others - but then as now - it is all about doing your thing regardless
of what the rest of the world thinks or says.
