The multimedia artist, poet and novelist Brion Gysin may be the most influential cultural figure of the 20th century that most people have never heard of.
Gysin's ideas influenced generations of artists, musicians and writers, among them David Bowie, Keith Haring, Patti Smith, Michael Stipe, Genesis P-Orridge and John Giorno.
None was touched more profoundly than William S. Burroughs, who said admiringly of Gysin: "There was something dangerous about what he was doing."
