I have realised that it would be of value to some people to make some information available on the sources of Debord’s detournements (most derived from Boris Donné’s excellent book “Pour Memoires”), and the sources of the pre-existing English translations I have used.

I’ve spent a few days tidying up my working notes to make this information available to those who are interested. 

The notes are split into 3 different documents related to the 3 sections of the book. Memoires is unpaginated,  I have used a numbering scheme (also used by Donné) where the first page of Jorn’s inkwork combined with Debord’s text is denoted as “Page 1”.
