I'm looking for this Dadaist poster I saw awhile ago.

Google is failing me. I'm looking for this Dadaist poster that parodied corporate lingo/jargon in a few pages of PDFs--at the beginning it's intelligible but it quickly breaks down into utter nonsense; entire sentences comprised of non-existent newspeak and graphs that contradict themselves.

It's pretty great. But it's nowhere to be found! Anyone have a clue?

Thanks!

Was this something from dada's heyday (i.e., 1910s-20s), or is it a contemporary dada-esque piece (I'm assuming it's the latter, given your mention of parodying corporate lingo)? Also, was it (at least the intelligible part) predominantly in English, or a different language?

A poster of "a few pages" is confusing. Do you mean this? (<PDF)
