An experimental novel using the "Random Edge" avant writing technique where a normal body of text is cut off randomly at the edges to generate new fragmented texts, phrases and random letters which devolve almost to the point of concrete poetry. These texts are mixed with experimental comics and cartoons where speech is replaced with syllables and random letter combinations. The book is intended as a "far out" novel in the tradition of sixties counterculture writing as well as James Joyce's Finnegans Wake. The book also includes random photographic elements modelled after W G Sebald. This book will appeal to fans of experimental writing, concrete poetry, avant-garde art and music as well as mini comics and graphic novels. It tries to combine all possible types of experimental works on paper into a single novel. Nte refers to the form as a "glitch novel", and sees it as one possible positive future for avant-garde writing that could arise from the short attention spans generated by current smartphone and internet obsessions.

counterculture: kid's comics, beatniks, CND, hippies, rock posters, underground comics, punk art,new wave mini comics, zines, graphic novels, mtv cartoons, graffiti!Sol Nte's continuing exploration of "the Book as exhibition space" and "the Book as a repository of counterculture".The New Wave Tales of Slick Royale explores punk new wave in terms of what Nte describes as a "counterculture nodal point"; where it was and where it's going to - all measured in the evolving and dissolving of its visual aesthetic. The kids comics of the 40s and 50s, that fed into the 60s counterculture via the underground comics of the hippie scene, then morphs into a rawer, harsher, more angular drawing style of punk and new wave as reflected in the music, towards the end of the 80s with the rise of the graphic novel, and the adult cartoon boom of the early 90s brings another aesthetic, a follow on from Gary Panter's "ratty line", in this way we could reread the punk new wave angular graphics as a throwback to cubism in cartoon form, while the 90s gives us art brut and abstraction, a counterculture in line alone, follow on from Herge; la ligne claire, angular line, ratty line, the dissolving and re-evolution, revolution of the line, the cartoon as a measure of art history, forever the line!

"Sol Nte's ideological graphic novel toolbox for aspiring countercultural heroes inspired by the residents , gary panter , caroliner rainbow , the boredoms , fort thunder , neutral milk hotel and fancy lad skateboards."- Boredom Rainbow Milk Thunder Zine. Sol Nte has been making art, music, and words for the "no-audience underground" since the late eighties. With the exception of being included in a handful of exhibitions, dalliances with Fluxus in the nineties, and an extremely modest streaming revenue for his Pharaoh Sol free jazz albums, he is a refreshingly obscure unknown artist. He has written several books including an underground classic zine novel entitled "Fuck Yeah Skateboard Noise Music". This is his second comic.

This is the first book in Sol Nte's 'Language Noise Literature Manifesto' series where software is specially written to create books by iterative random recombination of words emotive to specific genres:"Points of a thundering corporate giddyup!
