Cory Arcangel has created a web page with Kurt Cobain's suicide note that, when refreshed, pulls up different sets of Google Ads based on "keywords" in the letter. Pretty droll, and about says it all about our ad-annotated culture. I should say, so-called suicide note because, this being the first time I've read it, it sure didn't sound like he was planning to kill himself. More like, explaining why he was going to stop touring. As Paul notes, there is a conspiracy theory about the "suicide" that this note certain lends credence to.
Having lived through this in Seattle (literally lived a few houses down the street), I am glad that this issue has been resurrected and in such a clever way. To get even more confused and abhored watch the movie, 'Kurt and Courtney', or the numerous books on the subject. Certainly what really happened is more complex than what has been packaged as happening.
Courtney Hole did it.
Absolutely. She did it. I read the book, the suicide notes. The woman is a psychopath.
