Frankly, to me this is a complete nonsense, unironically. I feel nothing reading it, and also I find that looking for a meaning (which authors claim there is, because their nonsense ought to be an intuitional proto-language) isn’t more useful than making sense of dreams or drug-induced trips. For some reason, which stays mysterious to me, many russian literature/culture actors were borderline… esoteric(?). Iow, on dope. This reflects in their articles, speeches, ideas. Zaum is one of these reflections. The modern russian term for things like that is “sheeza”, roughly meaning “of schizophrenic origin”. This all starts making sense only when you get fucked up enough.
Also, and this is absolutely my own perception, political movements here opposed to you know what suffer from this culture, because it’s a little disconnected, so to say. The recent century is not only a result of continuous oppression, but also some ancient, mysteriously imprinted delusion, only affecting those in higher cultural planes. As a result, no change here does good, while no change is bad. Damned in both cases. Idk if by reading russian books you’d get a glimpse into this, maybe it’s my own sheeza.
(Keep in mind that I’m a practical peasant who doesn’t get art when judging.)
