Posted by certaincircuits [image: Like] Dear friends, Because of your generosity, we are 65% funded, and there are only 28 days to go! We hope that you will tell your friends and colleagues about this project and share it because it is our collective dream that it will be funded. Remember, that Kickstarter grants do not get funded unless they reach 100%, and we very much want to deliver our sponsors the rewards they have ordered. Our last Kickstarter grant was funded so we are optimistic, but please keep sharing and liking on the social media networks below and beyond. Our launch party is May 5 at the Flying Carpet Cafe and Bar in the Francisville section of Philadelphia (near the Art Museum). The event will feature the opening of a month long exhibition featuring our artists, including cover artist Kevin Von Holtermann, Aja Beech, Richardson Comly, warren longmire, Jody McGrath, and Janice Sloane, among others. You will be entertained by film and video work as well as live performances from our contributors and several of our supporters. So please put this evening in your calendars, and save the date. Become a fan of the Flying Carpet on Facebook: www.facebook.com/FLYPHL Our latest online issue is up: certaincircuits.org (The image below is a screen capture of our latest artists.) Thank you again for your tremendous generosity, and we encourage you to submit to future issues.

She married soon after but her husband, also a veteran of the war, died suddenly of pneumonia, leaving her to raise three children during the Depression. In 1939, she was legally declared insane and committed to Evansville State Hospital. In subsequent years she was released to live with her grown children but ultimately she was recommitted to the same asylum and died there in 1957. The story is drawn, in part, from medical records, hometown newspaper articles, and oral/aural family history. Frederica is my grandmother."

Still, we hope you'll agree that the legacy of the Orono conferences is one well worth continuing, and that the blend of scholarly papers and poetry readings, along with the bookfair and the many opportunities to meet and talk intensively with other poets and scholars, makes for a distinctive experience that only rolls around once every four years. International scholars traveling from outside the U.S., graduate students, and independent scholars and artists are encouraged to inquire about reduced, and in some cases fully waived, registration rates. We can also offer tips on how best to get to Orono by plane, bus, or car. On behalf of fellow organizing committee members Carla Billitteri and Benjamin Friedlander, please accept our warm best wishes and high hopes for seeing many of you here in late June, Steve ======================================== Associate Professor of English Acting Director, National Poetry Foundation Coordinator, New Writing Series 313 Neville Hall University of Maine Orono ME 04469 | 207-581-3818 steven.evans@maine.edu | steven.evans@umit.maine.edu www.thirdfactory.net ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

What connections brought poetry into dialog with ot= her fields? What social and political contexts mattered most? What of the p= resent can be traced back to that moment? What poets, poetic formations, te= ndencies in poetics warrant our continued attention? What accidents of rece= ption might we now revisit and perhaps repair? Prospective participants are encouraged to draw on the full range of archiv= al resources in conceiving their projects, including the digital audio, dig= ital video, and digital facsimile holdings now widely available on-line. As with previous NPF conferences, the scholarly presentations and panels wi= ll be amply supplemented by a variety of poetry readings, including plenary= readings by notable figures associated with the decade being explored. Paper proposals consisting of a title and a brief (300-500 word) abstract s= hould be directed to the NPF Editorial Collective at NPF_Paideuma@umit.main= e.edu. Panel proposals should include, in addition, a brief rationale for t= he envisioned grouping. Proposals for alternative forms of intellectual pra= ctice/presentation, such as roundtables or seminars, will be read with inte= rest. The deadline for proposals has been extended to March 15, 2012.

Her poetry is remarkable for its paradoxical interrogation of selfhood within the lyric mode. Her critical writings on motherhood, women in history, identity, and philosophy of language, are recognised as an important contribution to Feminism and Contemporary Philosophy. She was, until recently, Professor of Literature with Philosophy at the University of East Anglia and is currently A. D. White Professor at Cornell University. She was formerly Writer in Residence at Tate Gallery London, and has held fellowships at Brown University and at Birkbeck, University of London.

All proceeds from the sale of =93The Dangerous Islands=94 at this event will go to support the Programming Department at the Cloquet Public Library. S=E9amas Cain is a poet, playwright, conceptual artist, performance artist, and theater director, who has written about Ireland for many years. =A0Born in Cloquet, he has been active in Irish artistic and political circles since his first involvements in Northern Ireland in the 1960s. =A0The Northern Ireland conflict, known as =93The Troubles,=94 was an early focus of his essays, pamphlets, and manifestos. =A0In an essay written in Northern Ireland in 1968, Cain expressed his understanding of the struggle of the Irish Civil Rights Movement as a hope to create a non-violent and humanist movement against the tyranny of the British Establishment while deploring the =93mindless violence=94 of the paramilitaries. Ireland's struggles form the backdrop of his most recent work, =93The Dangerous Islands.=94 =A0=93The Dangerous Islands=94 is an unconventional novel that combines aspects of various genres, including poetry and play script, in conveying the experience of a young Irish-American man from 1965 to 1998. Francis M. Carroll, author of =93The Fires of Autumn : The Cloquet-Moose Lake Disaster of 1918=94 and =93Crossroads in Time : A History of Carlton County, Minnesota,=94 has written that Cain's novel =93invites the reader into a kaleidoscope of colors, sounds and images. =A0The experience is both intensely personal and cosmic. =A0S=E9amas Cain's work comes out of the world of ancient Celtic sagas, out of the s=E9ances of William Butler Yeats, out of T.S. Eliot's desert wastelands, and especially out of James Joyce's play with language. =A0He takes the reader to mysterious islands, as well as dangerous islands.=94 Mr. Cain has been the recipient of grants from the IMRAM Festival in Ireland, the Minnesota State Arts Board, the McKnight Foundation, and the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council, among other organizations. =A0He describes his novel as =93a non-Classic coming-of-age tale. =A0It is a story of self-education and self-development, with convictions and disillusionment. =A0But it resists all pigeonholing, for it is also a novel of ideas ranging across literature, philosophy and politics.=94 =93The Dangerous Islands=94 has been published in Ireland by The Red Jasper Press, an independent publishing house under the curatorship of Dr. Kit Fryatt, lecturer in English at the Mater Dei Institute of Education, a part of Dublin City University. =A0Dr. Fryatt organizes activities of the Irish Centre for Poetry Studies, in which Mr. Cain has contributed. =A0The book's preface has been written by American-Irish poet Sheila E. Murphy. Mary Hagen has been a local harper for many years. =A0Linda Crumpton is a member of a Celtic music group that performs regularly at Carmody's Irish Pub in Duluth, Minnesota. =A0Both musicians are Cloquet residents. Copies of =93The Dangerous Islands=94 are available through Berkeley Books of Paris, France; Housmans Bookshop in London, England; Boekie Woekie of Amsterdam, The Netherlands; The Loft Bookshop and Gregory Carr Books in Dublin; Magers & Quinn in Minneapolis, Minnesota; and the UMD Bookstores in Duluth. =A0For more information about availability, scroll down the page at ... http://www.freewebs.com/seamascain _____________________________________ For additional information, contact Mark King ...

Then Andrew had a heart attack and was queued up for life-saving surgery. With nothing to do but wait, kept alive by sprays and medical potions to distract himself Andrew agreed to work with Phil on a collaboration. Andrew suggested the Japanese court poet Murasaki Shikibu (973-1014); her 5-line form might be a place to start. Phil was thinking of Ornette Coleman: two quartets facing each other and going at it (1960). We wrote in 5s back and forth, then shuffled our silence-inducing cacophony into 10s, then improvised from there... Andrew's operation was bumped once, and then happened. He's fine. The shuffle served its purpose, and now surprises and delights them both. Andrew Burke was born in Victoria, but raised in Western Australia. Since the mid-Sixties, he has published nine collections of poetry. His most recent book of poems is QWERTY- take my word for it (Mulla Mulla Press, 2011). He has also published short stories, a novel, and criticism. He has lectured at universities in Australia and China. Readers may read his daily musings at http://hispirits.blogspot.com/ Phil Hall is the 2011 winner of the Governor General's Award for Poetry in English for his book Killdeer (BookThug). Other recent titles are The Little Seamstress (Pedlar Press, 2010) and White Porcupine (Bookthug, 2007). He is a member of the Writers' Union of Canada. Everything escapes him.

Durgin" Subject: Pamela Lu Reading in Chicago MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit *Kenning Editions happily welcomes Pamela Lu to Chicago, for a rare visit to the Midwest, reading from her novel /Ambient Parking Lot/ (2011). * Sunday, April 22nd, 4:00 PM at the Logan Square Comfort Station, 2579 N. Milwaukee Avenue. The event is free and the venue is ADA accessible. Ambient Parking Lot is a 187-page book about one band's quest to capture the world's most perfect ambient noise in a parking lot. Wait, don't go away! It's great ... I swear. It's dizzying, really, and hilarious. ---Cooper Berkmoyer, /San Francisco Bay Guardian / Lu's book looks at the cerebral struggle of artmaking and of ambient music: as struggle between the problems of the language of the individual and the language of the collective. ---Devin King, /Make Magazine / The Ambient Parkers' yen for recognition seems to be a residual effect of their desire to create something that matters, but what their message or the content of that matter might be is always skirted over or slides into something new. In this way, Lu captures---and mocks as well, perhaps, but lovingly---the existential pretenses of artistic endeavors. In the end, Lu suggests that despite the absurdities and shifting metamorphoses inherent in human effort, the greatest grace and sense of humanity comes from attending, from recognizing that the deathly silence we fear is in fact fully populated and alive once we quiet ourselves. By the novel's end, ambience takes on new meaning, and doesn't require our torturously theorized amplifications but graces us when we quietly acknowledge it. ---Sueyeun Juliette Less, /The Constant Critic/ What I love about Lu's work is her sharp wit, subtle delivery and deadpan hilarity, which you have to slow down and listen for in order to fully appreciate. Thus, parked, I listened. ---Jai Arun Ravine, /Lantern Reviews / Part fiction, part earnest mockumentary, /Ambient Parking Lot/ follows a band of musicians as they wander the parking structures of urban downtown and greater suburbia in quest of the ultimate ambient* *noise, one that promises to embody their historical moment and deliver them up to the heights of their self-important artistry. Along the way, they make sporadic forays into lyric while contending with doubts, delusions, miscalculations, mutinies, and minor triumphs. This saga peers into the wreckage of a post 9/11 landscape and embraces the comedy and poignancy of failed utopia. /Ambient Parking Lot/ is the much anticipated second book by Pamela Lu. Portions of this book were previously published in /Chicago Review/ and /Harper's/. She is also the author of/ Pamela: A Novel /and /The Private Listener/, a chapbook from Corollary Press. /Pamela: A Novel /is on the decade's bestsellers list from Small Press Distribution, and has been taught in a number of literature and creative writing classes. Her writing also appears in the anthologies /Bay Poetics/ and /Biting the Error/, and has been published in periodicals such as /1913/, /Antennae/, /Call/, /Chain/, and /Fascicle/. She lives and works in the San Francisco Bay Area. On Pamela Lu's previous novel---"/Pamela: A Novel/ is one of the finest books to emerge from the ardent, experimental writing scene in the Bay Area . . . Lu builds a social space and founds a society."---/The Stranger/ / "Reading the word 'I' in this novel becomes a mystical experience---an invitation to connect to the 'I' in all of us . . . This is a work of 'precision,' as Robert Musil would say, 'in matters of the soul.' It extends the novel's capacity to think."---/Rain Taxi Review of Books/ / "Lu, in her debut, . . . [creates] a precise and humorous elegy to the self, and to its self-subversions . . . This is a book of extraordinary philosophical subtlety and clarity, one that manages to tell a beautiful story in spite of itself."---/Publishers Weekly/ Comfort Station is a turn-of-the-century structure turned multidisciplinary arts space in the heart of Chicago's Logan Square. Originally a resting place for tired travelers, it now plays host to artists from all walks of life, and to anyone with an interesting idea. As the only structure of its kind still standing along the entire boulevard system, Comfort Station represents the preservation of a neighborhood rich in history, while playing host to exhibitions and events that promote its present culture. In Chicago, shoppers can find Ambient Parking Lot at Saki and Quimby's . ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

The second one says the pond will now be renamed; the probably more interesting one mentions a the case of equipping the word "Negro" (originally an adjective with a small n, then a noun with a capital n) with a brand new adjective: "Negroic." But oh yes I do wish the Democrats had started saying "Publican Party" back in the 1940s, when the idea was proposed. Nobody reads the King James Bible now, but seventy years ago people would have gotten the allusion: "thieves and publicans."

Over the next 26 years, Sim, and later collaborator Gerhard, produced an epic 6,000-page graphic novel, the longest-running English language comic series by a single creative team. They revolutionized the comics medium by showing other artists that they too could forgo major publishers, paving the way for such successes as *Tee= nage Mutant Ninja Turtles* and *Bone*. This in-depth work, the first collection of critical essays on *Cerebus*, provides a multifaceted approach to Sim and Gerhard=EF=BF=BDs complex and entertaining oeuvre, including their inno= vative use of the comic medium, storytelling and satiric techniques, technical and visual sophistication, and Sim=EF=BF=BDs use of the comic as commentary on = gender and religion. *About the Author* *Eric Hoffman*, a poet and essayist, is the author of six books and lives in Connecticut. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

I'm told I look good for my age; that I play like a much younger person. In a performance I hear that a dancer, who died at 68, was in the middle of the end of her life. A friend says that his uncle dying at the age of 72, is quite old. Grandfathers and grandmothers on tv always look to retirement and playing with the kids. Television ads are increasingly aimed towards drugging us, those over 60 say, because of a variety of ailments we don't have. We're frightened of falling and not getting up. We're no longer mid-career artists, but a dying generation. We're waiting for the end. Friends say that now we're waiting for us to die off, that every day brings news of new deaths and again this isn't true. The rhetoric is hurtful and isn't meant to be hurtful. The rhetoric is made out of bits and pieces of the 'natural' progression from birth to death. We're the AARP generation. We're the baby boomers are are demanding to suck social welfare dry. We don't do anything. We're not worth listening to. We're hippies and repeat the 60s. We just love listening to 60s music which formed us. We're part of the social welfare state. Some of us who fought in Vietnam are an embarrassment. Some of us who didn't are an embarrassment. On tv we're told that 'all we have is our stories.' If this happened to anyone at any age, the result would be unbearable. We're not taken seriously. We're all waiting for us to pass away. We have to prove ourselves repeatedly. We're the result of hidden prejudice. We're on the way to dementia. We're on the way to Alzheimer's. We're told our short-term memory isn't what it used to be. In the most well-meaning areas of popular culture, we're forgetful. Our bones are weak and ready to fracture. We have to exercise more. Our family has to be everything. We're not eligible for grants and for jobs. We're eligible to die and the sooner we do that, the less the embarrassment. In fact embarrassment is the key to everything; we embarrass others. If we're sexual it's a joke. If we remarry it's a joke. If we refuse our assigned place in the family it's a joke. I first ran into ageism at the age of 30, applying for a job as editor of an art mag in Los Angeles. I've always been sensitive to it because I've always been told I look and act 'younger than my age.' Now the violence of age, an assigned number, a number we can't do anything about - almost but not quite like the color of our skin - is foregrounded. I get turned down for jobs because of it, illegal but of course there are always ways around it. My own feeling? If I can't do something now, just as if I couldn't do something at 20, then so be it; I don't belong where doing that thing is impossible. But otherwise, leave me alone, judge me on what I make, what I say, and leave goddamn age out of it. Don't call me a generation and don't tell me my best days are behind me. Don't tell me I'm in my golden years. This may all seem minor, idiotic, to you. You have no idea, at least in the US, how pervasive this is. There are pockets of resistance - Eyebeam for example, where I was resident until a week or two ago, is a healthy exception. But almost everywhere, the codes are in place, they're suffocating. I'm offered seats on the subway - because of age, not because I need them. People condescent, smile at me, since apparently I'm no longer sexual, have no desires, know my place. I'm told I'm a child again, that the elderly are child-like. I'm told I'm living on borrowed time. I'm told there's not much time left. I'm told I should be grateful. I'm told I have a loving family. I'm told my grandchildren are my future. I'm told my children are my future. I'm told I have no future. I'm told about generations, that I'm of this or that generation, that it's now the turn of a new generation. I'm told what our generation thinks and I can't recognize that. I'm told repeatedly that we were born before the digital age, that we think differently. The fact this isn't true, none of this is true, with people I know and I'm sure millions of people in this country, is irrelevant. I'm lectured _to._ I'm talked _to._ I'm taken out of the realm of instrumental thinking, consigned to a real which is a total mirage, told to act my age and behave myself. People don't tell me to retire, but they assume I'm headed that way. My theoretical work is assumed dated, somewhere back probably with existentialism or Bateson. My mind is supposedly elderly. Am I repeating myself? Did I forget something here? Should I send a birthday gift? Should I ask a grandson or daughter to drive for me, since I'm constantly running off the road? Should I start preparing for the end? Should I become a consumer of culture, preferably old tv shows and books, instead of a producer? It's remarkable how well I look for my age! It's remarkable I haven't had any major medical problems yet, but wait, they're just around the corner. Do I have enough money to do nothing? Should I do nothing? Should I worry about my IRA? I don't expect this to change, not even with radicalism on the rise among people I know. But I do want to say this - that when you see someone, at any age, turning towards senility or depression, you might ask yourself what happened to that person, how is that person perceived - by his or her family or friends, by others in the community, by granting organizations or hiring committees. You might look at studies of enforced helplessness, you might think for a moment how age, like race, manifests itself today - age more violently than ever, since we're assumed to be non-productive, eating away at the very foundations of civil digital society, of whatever's left of the commons, of the fabric of the sentient city. What I'm talking about is being called a 'geezer' or 'old geezer' or 'old man' with all the nastiness that implies. This isn't true of everyone, of course, but it's miserable enough, that it's true across the board. In the culture industry, such as it is, you either become blue-chip and/or elder- statesman or woman, or you sink into oblivion. If I go into a gallery, I'm immediately sized up in a certain way that parallels the not-so-subtle hatreds against race in the 1930s. I recognize the violence of that parallel itself, but there's no other way to describe it. Lyotard called this kind of situation the differend, and there's been writing on and off about the stigma that's applicable. We carry a sign on our foreheads, a sign not of our own making or choosing, but one imposed on us culturally. Whatever we do or accomplish is under or within the sign. Whatever we say is already signed, assigned. I'm sick of this, and this rant, so to speak, is nothing more than an expression of that sickness. And I'm well aware that nothing will be done about it, although things _can_ be done about it. I'm tired of ageist remarks being 'let slip' accompanied by apologies. We have no slogans like "we're here and we're queer." We're speechless. We're kept speechless. We're irrelevant, just as this protest is irrelevant. In the _foreground_ there are all the inadvertent and well-meaning comments, advertising, stereotypes in the media. In the _background_ there are concrete decisions being made against us, but 'benevolently' for us. In the background, Foucauldian power violates the commons. In the back- ground, the Occupiers don't see age as a problem. In the background, they're waiting for our deaths, forgetfulnesses, incapacities, hostels - they're waiting for our silencing. The _they_ is the Heideggarian They, the They of doxa, the They of the obdurate, idiotic inert. The they is always well-meaning; the They knows what's best for us. On and on: This would kill _anyone,_ this misreading, misrecognition, deprivation, fun-house mirror. Some people can ignore it altogether, most of us can't. We live within a social order of _continuous violation._ And there's no way out. - Alan ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

Some advance notice on /This Constellation Is A Name/: "Full-throated praise for this remarkable accomplishment, a generous tome of over a half century's life and astute consciousness in poetry. Michael Heller is one of our best poets and thinkers who has carried Oppen's dictum that poetry embodies "precise information on existence" forward. His erudition and scope astound: Jewish mysticism finds company with Baudelaire and TibetHis modes are various and true, and constellate fully realized an experimental/ philosophical/profound Lyric. ---Anne Waldman "To conceive otherwise," says Michael Heller, is the poet's essential task, to which he has apprenticed himself for nearly fifty years. No matter if the poem is brief or extended, the line long or short, the setting Manhattan or the Colorado Rockies, a lost Bialystok or an imagined Tibet---what arises from the page is an action of mind, an asking, questing trajectory, tracked with uncanny surety by movement of the poetic line. This is no language-locked adventure, but an impassioned, ethical /listening/ to the mind---and the world---at work in words. ---Susan Tichy Reading with me will be Kristin Prevallet the author of /I, Afterlife:An Essay/ and other volumes. The Poetry Project is located in St. Mark's Church at the corner of 2^nd Avenue and East Tenth Street in Manhattan (call 212-674-0910 for more information). -- Home page: michaelhellerpoetry.com Recent books: Beckmann Variations& Other Poems (Shearsman, 2010); Eschaton (Talisman, 2009); Speaking the Estranged: Essays on the work of George Oppen (Salt, 2008); Uncertain Poetries: Essays on Poets, Poetry and Poetics (Salt, 2005); Exigent Futures: New and Selected Poems (Salt, 2003).

If it's good I'll hate it because I'm envious. If it's bad I'll hate it because it's bad. You should give it to Gertrude Stein." The shocking not-so-sub sub-text is that Stein was not a writer. A consummate reader perhaps, but (at least in Hemingway's mind, if not Woody Allen's) not a writer. Pretty bizarre for me--since I grew up loving Stein and denigrating Hemingway.

This includes just about anything that can be generated in real (and hyperreal) time, such as sound, image, word, gesture, and a range of semi-definable electronic phenomena ("electronic linguistics"). What they generate through various instruments ("psychotropic languaging vehicles") becomes a field of strange attractors ("dynamical lingualia") with a pull toward possible language realities ("lingualities"). They have called it "a pulsational conversation with stepped-up intensity in which Real Time is invited to show its other side." Come early, stay late! Our wonderful exhibition guides will be offering free guided tours of /glossodelic attractors/ before and after the program. Tours will meet in the south gallery at 1pm and 4pm. -- George Quasha 124 Station Hill Road Barrytown, NY 12507 845-758-5291 (home) 914-474-5610 (cell) www.quasha.com www.baumgartnergallery.net www.stationhill.org ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

Long Poem Mysteriously Appears in the Sumptuous Mist of Collaboration You heard somewhere that there will be a workshop of live spontaneous collaboration with a little-known post-avant-farmer poet from the outskirts of nowhere and come to the gathering having no expectations of what collaboration could possibly mean or how the author as sole intellect is surrendered to the greater multi-lingual spirit of sound and language and typography dancing unrestrained into the night. Once there, with the curious and inspired contributions of all gathered, a mysterious linguistic object arises as the time passes and the interactions overcome the barriers to unleashing creativity. BRING laptops, pencils, typewriters, iPhones, whatever communication device rocks your world. Since the year 1999, mIEKAL aND has abandoned the world of the Author in exchange for the exciting and glamorous life of collaborations which dissolve the boundaries between identity, gender and the mysterious abstractions of the afterlife of thought.

I'm really excited about the book and from the response it sounds like a lot of people may want to do course adoptions for it. For more information on the book, visit http://transanthology.com For info on TC you can visit http://tctolbert.com And for more information on EOAGH Books in general, you can visit http://eoagh.com/?page_id=22 Thanks to Tod for the really sweet shout-out about my first book Since I Moved In, which I never really publicized properly because I was running around frantically curating 4 simultaneous reading series for several years. For anyone who is interested, I can also mail you a copy of my newest chapbook Violet Speech, which is published by 2nd Avenue Poetry.

The idea that liking things is somehow equivalent to knowing them, is in every way refuted by the humor, inquiry, & love this book manifests over & over. While the language is clear, its clarity is turned to sing through something elementally illegible foundering in the depths of our feeling--"This text is written on buttons / so tightly sewn / to each other that no one / can read it." That's really why I feel so bonded to his book, & why now I can't imagine life without it." Dana Ward "Reading Yankelevich's poems, we get to know where and how he lives, and how the library of all the poetry that truly matters in this world, located in his awareness, affects those facts of existence." Anselm Hollo "...It makes me happy to be alive. Because every poem is a surprise-- the kind of poignancy that hits close to home, and the kind of sarcasm that heals." Kristin Prevallet "ALPHA DONUT kept me up all night with its hardboiled deep-cover tenderness. Yankelevich writes the driest bar poems west of the Great Depression and his rolls in the hay with various memes fatales may end up double-proving that no vacuum is perfect, least of all New York in the aughts. His poem "The Tree of Heaven Grows Downward" will outlive the sinews of this paperback." Julien Poirier "ALPHA DONUT is a book of love poems in which the beloved is language-- its stubborn resistances and sweet objecthood, its uncomfortable marriages to park bench and cigarette and city." Cathy Wagner Born in Moscow, USSR, in 1973, Matvei Yankelevich is the author of Boris by the Sea (Octopus Books) and several chapbooks: Writing in the Margin (Loudmouth Collective), The Present Work (Palm Press), The Nature Poetry of Matvei Yankelevich (Knock-Off), and Bending at the Elbow (Minutes Books). He edited and translated Today I Wrote Nothing: The Selected Writings of Daniil Kharms (Ardis/Overlook). He has taught at the Russian Department of Hunter College, Columbia University School of the Arts Writing Division, and the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College. He is a member of the volunteer editorial collective of Ugly Duckling Presse, a nonprofit publisher based in Brooklyn, New York.

It's beautiful! It's new! It's getting airplay!

The first one is Cauldron by Alan Sondheim, Helena Espvall & Azure Carter. The other is Circle of Crosses by Dora Bleu, Tom Carter and Sam Shalabi. These releases are domestically produced 140 gram vinyl, housed in an offset printed cover with j-card style obi. These are split releases with Tequila Sunrise Records. From the write ups: Cauldron - Cauldron deals out a three of cups: Alan Sondheim, a pioneer of mystical ear-tweak and sci-fi sonic ritual sound, chamber-improv gypsy cellist Helena Espvall, and eco-trance singer Azure Carter? thrice to thine and thrice to mine, and thrice again, to make up nine. Channeling the ghosts of Opal Whiteley and Lou Harrison, Cauldron conjures the scratch and shush of the Big Bang out of wood, wind and cat-gut. Whenever you listen to it, this album is always over too soon, just like life. Fire Museum and Tequila Sunrise Records deal out a two of pentacles: not to get all ?Yankee Candle? here, but we only made 250 of these, so grab one before they melt away like chemtrails in the sunset sky, http://www.museumfire.com/cauldron.htm $24.98 North America/$34.98 Rest of the world (includes postage). ================================================================== From Azure: We got played in NJ :) From: Google Alerts Playlist for Irene Trudel - March 26, 2012 Odetta, Lass of the Low Country, At the Gate of Horn, Tradition (US).

It links Tripoli (32?548N 13?119E) to Washington D.C (38?5342.4N 77?0212.0W) and Houston (29?4546N 95?2259W), not to mention Mile End (45?3130N 73?3500W) to Louvain-la-Neuve (50? 40 4 N, 4? 36 42 E).

The festival is also interested in texts and essays. The festival takes place on the leap second which occurs 30th June 2012 23:59:60 UTC. Submission at festival website http://noemata.net/leapsec/ The leap second festival is an open, free, distributed, international, non-profit festival for art, technology and precarity coordinated on the Internet. This is the first leap second festival. The festival marks the leap second as deviation and glitch, a bug in the machinery of time, and also a reality-check and celebration (glitz) of natural cycles and physical reality, taking place at the moment when the ideal time we have on our clocks is synchronized with the real time based on the rotation of the earth. The festival is open and free for anyone who wish to participate and submit work. There are no prizes or fees involved. The festival is documented afterwards. The festival is open to all types of artistic expressions. Even though the festival is coordinated and organized via the net the works themselves don't have to be based, or available, on the net. The festival is distributed in the sense that the works take place at a certain time and not necessarily at a certain place. The website of the festival will coordinate the works by organizing and listing, hosting, exhibiting, running, and documenting each according to its needs. The festival believes one second doesn't have to be an impossible limitation, but maybe a creative limitation, whether or not the works are realized as things, events or processes adapted to immediate human perception, or as programs or code that are executed or exhibited. An ordinary computer does a couple of billion things in the course of one second. The leap second itself is defined as 9,192,631,770 cycles of a cesium-133-atom. In the same way that the festival is partly conceptual despite the physical base in earth rotation and time, the participating works might revolve around ideas about time, virtuality, and physicality, in addition to notions about science, machines, technology and how they relate to natural and physical cycles. That said, there might be other aspects involved, each own to his own, for example... - The "formless"... The rejection of form and content and their traditional game, in favour of horizontality, pulse, entropy, gestalt, fleeting, and joke. The form is orderly enough - one second - but the order is almost in the order of joke, and in the horizontality, pulse and entropy of time - fleeting, virtual - as if to ask, did it really happen, or what is it for something to happen, or to be? - "one-off"... one-shot, a happening that occurs only once and is not repeated --happening, natural event, occurrence, occurrent - an event that happens, though with intended irregular repetition, an unstable jiggle of the ball, keeping one eye on the ball, the blink of an eye. - Precarity/Selfprecarization (turning on itself)... =93So here we are in the present: at a time when the old ideas and ideologies of the autonomy and freedom of the individual (especially the individual as genius artist) plus specific aspects of post-1968 politics have turned into hegemonic neoliberal modes of subjectivation. Selfprecarization means saying yes to exploiting every aspect of creativity and of life=85 The need to pursue other, less creative, precarious jobs to finance one=92s own cultural production is something one puts up with. This financing of one=92s own creative output, enforced and yet opted for at the same time, constantly supports and reproduces the very conditions in which one suffers and which one at the same time wants to be part of. It is perhaps because of this that creative workers, these voluntarily precarized virtuosos, are subjects so easily exploited; they seem able to tolerate their living and working conditions with infinite patience because of the belief in their own freedoms and autonomies, and because of the fantasies of self-realization. In a neoliberal context, they are so exploitable that, now, it is no longer just the state that presents them as role models for new modes of living and working=94=85 From =93Critique of creativity=94 http://mayflybooks.org/?page_id=3D74 The leap second. Technology has made the leap second possible/necessary. The leap second is no natural event as are mid-summer, equinox, etc., even if all of them is about an adjustment of a natural cycle. The leap second doesn't have a cultural history before technology made it possible to measure the physical rotation of the earth accurately enough to intervene the ideal atomic time (the second defined by the cesium-atom). The earth rotation appears to be more variable, and the length of a day (a physical sun-day, a rotation of the earth around itself) is slowly increasing over time. In that way the leap second is introduced for the purpose of synchronizing the ideal time we have on our clocks with the natural time in the universe. The leap second festival, in this sense, can be seen as a new way of celebrating natural cycles, aided by technology, but contrary to the traditional celebration of eg. winter solstice or equinox, the leap second is not regular, but more a measure of instability, almost virtual, and having more character of being a bug in the machinery of time, a technological glitch one is trying to patch, at the same time that it is a reality-check and adjustment towards nature and physical reality. It is also this bug that is being celebrated, of the technological deviation from the natural cycle, and nature's deviation from technology, and their realignment in the leap second. The festival plans at taking place at each leap second in the years to come. The leap second are irregular and are announced by The International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS) half a year in advance. If the international society decides to abolish the leap second in the future because of problems updating and synchronizing all the world's computers to real time, the festival plan to continue like other pagan festivals around seasonal cycles. The next international debate about the future of the leap second will take place in 2015. Ordinarily the leap second is added to the universal time, but the possibility exists that it's subtracted. In that case the festival will receive works for deletion, and the submitted works disappear when the festival takes place at the second that is being taken away. _____________________________________ =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.
