Abstract / Description of output
This chapter reevaluates the artistic praxis of musician Kurt Cobain through a consideration of the impact of of riot grrrl praxis on his output. Looking at the influence of William Burroughs and Kathy Acker through the cut-up technique, I trace the literary lineage of Cobain's work, evaluating the place of collage, aleatory writing, and deconstructionist theory in his oeuvre.
