instantly disappearing
immediately being art
to disappear and to become

and her two years old daughter Jasna. I loved them both
&
1969

CHARISMA
everything depends on me
especially art
especially if I get rid of charisma
&
1970-1971
CODE
Slobodan Slavko Mirko Miroslav
an arrow of art that through speed burst into flames in the cosmic night
everything I worked and experienced within that year belongs to the group Code
everything that I later heard or read about the group Code does not correspond to what I feel
I relinquished group Code to remain faithful to it
for me it was a year of
sensibility
forcefulness
directness
ideas
invisible
tautologies
wholeness
non-annotation
great art
rebellion through art
rebellion within art
discovery of I
I of art
I within art
nobody could follow me so I left the group Code in the spring of 1971
the path of one’s own genius had to be taken
&
1971
MIROSLAV MANDIC FUCKS EVERYBODY’S MOTHER
last masterpiece in the twentieth century
towards the end of January I was going back home
in the night. on my own. a young beast
raging but innocent. hurt but repulsed by himself
carried away and already blown away
by creative and unrestrained force in my mind
I flew through the art of twentieth century
and realised that the story is over
and that the only masterpiece left in it was
Miroslav Mandic Fucks Everybody’s Mother
a thunder-piece that killed and saved me
on 30th September 2009 I wrote this:
to get going
to lead myself towards myself
by the genius of the path – by the genius of the rose
the child of the twentieth century art has died for the art of all centuries
a thunder of creating
Miroslav Mandic Fucks Everybody’s Mother
is the last masterpiece that swept away
all human crimes and all crimes of art
Miroslav Mandic Is Everybody’s Mother
Bud

1971
BREAKAWAY
from
art – studying – film
when I realised that the aesthetic is best expressed
through evil and that is how a lot of evil and a lot of aesthetic was created and
that I could make it as an artist only if I overcome existing
amount of aesthetic with even more evil
I decided to break away from art
I was yearning for unknown and wonderful paths of art
I boded that art is God’s love. God’s breathe
by breaking away from art I jumped into the abyss of unknown
I broke away from studying literature because I had a hunch of what kind of danger
for human spirit – literature – creativity is coming from the university which became
contemporary inquisition. a place where mafia of the profane elite is created
university enslaves gifted people and intoxicates them with vanity
so that they can soullessly and without responsibility rule people and other beings
by braking away from studies I freed myself from chains of banal scholarity
I also broke away from film which was my biggest love up until then
I thought I was going to watch films my whole life and find in them everything that is
larger than life but film was cruelly and extortionately expensive and that is why I gave it
up. through breaking away from film in pain of parting
I anticipated the sweetness of divine loyalty
losing existing so as to receive everything
&
1971
GREAT WORK OF ART MADE OUT OF NOTHING
walking back home somewhere around the transformer
on the corner of Jug Bogdanova and Tekelija streets
I thought of how I’d love to create a great art work out of nothing
&
1971-∞
ONE MAN
on 14th July 1971 in Venice I made first photo of my face and
I do that every month and will do it till the end of this life

WONDERFUL WORK OF ART
while we were crossing the street at the Worker’s University I said to Ceda Drca
that I would like to create a wonderful work of art. made out of seasons – for example
&
1971
RED NOTEBOOK
on 25th August 1971 I started writing all kinds of notes and poems in
a large red notebook and I will keep doing it till the end of this life
&
1971
POEM ABOUT FILM
after unsuccessful trip to Europe I decided
to punish myself by going to serve the army. in the hot Novi Sad summer
I wrote a text Poem About Film. that was my film through which said
farewell to film forever
&

NOBODY WAS AROUND
when I was going to the army

and lead me towards eternal art
&
1972
NOBODY WAS AROUND
when I was going to jail on 9th November 1972

JAIL
9th November 1972 – 9th August 1973
strict jail in Sremska Mitrovica – second nine months in my life
there was no crime but there was punishment and therefore
Punishment and Freedom
I never felt guilty for what I was sentenced for
but in jail through the mercy of Ghandi Christ Mohammed Dostoyevsky
Tolstoy Rolland Ramakrishna Nerval Kafka Poe Keller Maeterlinck Lao Tzu
I discovered much bigger guilt
the guilt of the first man
the guilt of being born
it was unbearable and that’s what saved me
the crisis to death
my strength was painfully suffering from love
I was crucified
on one side by existing society that I call the police
on the other side by all the knowledge that I call secret societies
I went straight and directly
towards God
&
23rd April 1973
CRISIS TO DEATH – FIGHT FOR LIFE
I wrote in jail on a piece of paper
No. I don’t believe that this sentence cannot be heard
thirteen years later that will become a title of my book
&
11th May 1973
LIFTED HAND IN JAIL
I lift my hand towards the sky. and I say this is art. why? because nobody saw it
&
1973
DECISIONS
with which I came out of prison
vegetarianism – it helped me a lot. I was marked. it opened me up towards nonmaterial food
nonviolence – a kind of tenderness. my friend
not to get a job – not being in faulty necessity exposed to phraseology
to shorten the step – taming my aggressiveness. soaring into the tranquillity
to be quiet – oh! that was often so good but it was hard as well. it was like music
not to talk in language of educated people – as far away as possible from corruptness and mediocrity
not possessing anything – it was maturity of a young man. responsibility for existence
to give books away – first thought of it was torturing me since books were everything
to me and when I came to the decision to give them away I felt joy of non-possessing
homelessness – responsibility through freedom
poverty – using my strength on compassion
modesty – calming down the strength and wildness of vanity in the silence of modesty
not buying clothes – to be occupied less with myself as possible
caring about others – enjoying others like back in the days in films
giving blood – how I used to look forward to it
to be patient – that dear soft strength
not reading books – it was a rest in the head. on my own towards new levels of conscience
not attending cultural manifestations – to be on the margin. to be everything within myself
to be disobedient towards police and secret societies – building dignity on ideals and on my own path
to be on the side of the rejected and to live being compassionate towards them – thank
you my loved ones. you are gentility – the keepers of conscience and consciousness
not watching myself in the mirror – it is such a good thing
&
9th August 1973
GETTING OUT OF PRISON
I am in the bus. I just got out of prison
I am twenty four. we are going down the Fruska Gora
I am full of strength and desires
nobody and nothing. with no chance whatsoever
and all of the sudden while watching through the window into the sky I felt
the life disappeared – I want to go into the sky
to my father. to my mother within me. to the joy of freedom
my walkingstarted with sky
