we could call it Hugo's Ball.

It was inspired by a sound poem by Hugo Ball. Hugo Ball was a German author and poet born in 1886. He was a founding member of Cabaret Voltaire whose memeber also included: Tristan Tzara, Hans Arp, Marcel Janco and Richard Huelsenbeck. According to Hugo Ball, inventor of dadaist phonetic poetry, "we must withdraw into the deepest alchemy of words, reserving to poetry its most sacred ground."
