At the CCU we practice many experimental art techniques of appropriation, including computational collage where existing publications (including books and magazines) and other found printed matter, are 'cut-up' and recombined into new works. The use of these found materials means that parts of the original publications may be included in the final artworks and/or process documentation. In such cases, we acknowledge the use of the original somewhere in the didactic description or directly within the work itself. However, any inclusion of the found publication, or part thereof, in the final artwork should not imply any endoresment of the CCU by the original publication's authors or publishers. All enquiries should be directed to our offices.
