The Language of DUPOBS


The emergence of DUPOBS has undermined any analysis of language as a synchronic system.  This emergence demands reevaluation of the verbal sign.  Whereas other languages depend on fairly static signification, the language of DUPOBS is free of constraints: a signified is rarely referred to by the same signifier twice.  This allows speakers to more accurately express the inner sound – as Kandinsky might call it – of signifieds as they are perceived.  While one thing may be a “k-khlaughredloeux” to one person, it is rather a “hououleu!” to someone else.  To use a Marxian paradigm, the language of DUPOBS has immediate use-value for self expression.  Exchange-value – in that there is a medium of exchange – is almost nil.  If static signification is the analogue of oppressive capital, then the language of DUPOBS is anti-capital.  It is a good idea to speak this language.  DUPOBS’ new album will be announced here shortly.
