Answer:

Cut-up technique.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is an aleatory literary technique that consists of cutting up and rearrange a written text to create a new one. Burroughs popularized it during the 1950s and 1960s.

The cut-up method was a type of literary collage taken from the painters, in fact, it was Brion Gysin, a painter, and writer, who introduce the technique to Burroughs. But this one takes it to a whole new level. He is considered very influentially to other artists that after him adopt the cut-up technique.

I hope this answer helps you.
