(and there are opportunities to add to this teaching assistantships and other sorts of aid in the second year, but still it isn't going to add up to $20k as at some schools.)

Poet James Pickersgill put together some thought-provoking interview questions in advance of the reading. Below is a sample, and the complete interview can be found here: http://www.poetrycobourg.ca/Camille%20Martin%20Q%26A.htm * Q - Camille, it is not at all true that poetry is your single creative outlet. You are known as a collage artist, too. You are an editor yourself ... and a translator. Your own work has been translated into other languages as well. You have been a university teacher. You've organized poetry reading series. You've had radio shows and you blog actively on the internet. When listed like that, these activities might sound like an array of separate pigeon-holes but I suspect that there is a lot of cross-pollination, so to speak. What is the nature of this creativity as you experience it: one spark that finds many openings to jump into flame, or, can it be distinct and separate creative impetuses? * *Camille Martin* - I love the idea of cross-pollination. In fact, I think my primary creative impulse is to bring together: to merge or to juxtapose. It's the basic impetus for the metaphor: to bring unlike things into dialogue. And for me, that goes for disciplines as well. I was reading and seeking out poetry on my own from an early age, though I didn't begin writing it in earnest until my late 30s. But my first creative expression was musical - I was trained as a classical pianist since I was six years old, and I went on to get a graduate degree in piano performance. I was also intensely interested in visual art. I've always felt a desire to bring the arts together. So now, in the autumn of my life, I have the pleasure of doing all three: making collages, writing poetry, and setting my poetry to music. I think these disciplines are sparking conversations among each another. * * * Cheers!

Enjoy, & then get back to the poems.” —Pierre Joris “A major poet for our time — & then some – Charles Bernstein has emerged as a principal voice –maybe the best we have – for an international avant-garde now in its second century of visions & revisions. It is in celebration of this that the Salt Companion to his work appears here, to show him in a trajectory from an American-centered language poetry in the 1970s to an active & significant relation to a constantly renewing & expanding global poetry in which his singularity has played a vital role. What becomes clear in these pages is how his generosity of mind & spirit continues to enrich us all. ” —Jerome Rothenberg Introduction William Allegrezza 1 Charles Bernstein Or An Insistence To Communicate Caroline Bergvall 6 Either You’re With Us And Against Us: Charles Bernstein’s Girly Man, 9–11, And The Brechtian Figure Of The Reader Tim Peterson 11 The Cave Children Of New York Are Never Free Miekal And 30 The Metaphysical Mouth And The Asylum Of The Everyday: Charles Bernstein And Contemporary Continental Philosophy Of Language Michael Eng 35 “Gazoop” Replaces “Is/Are” “In A Restless World Like This Gazoop Gazoop” Madeline Gins 55 Girly Men Ballads: (Il)Legible Identities In Charles Bernstein And Gertrude Stein Kimberly Lamm 57 That Poem For Charles Bernstein Lars Palm 85 “Spectres Of Benjamin”: (Re)Presentation And (Re) Semblance In Charles Bernstein’s Shadowtime Steven Salmoni 86 What As Poetic Steve Mccaffery 111 Taking On The Official Voice: Charles Bernstein’s Poetic Sophistry And Post-Process Writing Pedagogy Megan Swihart Jewell 114 From The Alphabet Ron Silliman 134 Beyond The Valley Of The Sophist: Charles Bernstein, Irony, And Solidarity Paul Stephens 140 Poem For Charles Ray Craig 169 To Think Figuratively, Tropically: Charles Bernstein’s Post-9/11 Grammar And Pragmatist Lessons In The Age Of Baudrillard Jason Lagapa 172 Charles Bernstein’s Anti-Suburban Poetry Peter Monacell 192 Some Nouns Donald Wellman 207 From A Philosophy Of Poetry To Poetry As Philosophy: The Dialectical Poetics Of Charles Bernstein Carlos Gallego 208 Content’s Profusion: Noise, Interruption And Reverse Peristalsis In The Poetics Of Charles Bernstein Michael Angelo Tata 234 Charles Bernstein In Buffalo 1999–2004 Kristen Gallagher 261 Charles Bernstein’s Catalogue Poetry Thomas Fink 269 Readdressing Constructivism And Conceptual Art:Aspects Of Work Factured By Charles Bernstein Allen Fisher 286 Circles From Which Maggie O’sullivan 301 Visual Strategies: A Line, A Verse, Something On Paper James Shivers 302 After Residual Rubbernecking (A Speculative Non-Serial Anti-Romance) Erica Hunt 340 A Life, Spliced: On The Early Tapeworks Of Charles Bernstein Michael S.

What was I thinking? But it means that the 2013 annual subscriptions are now available as well: $50 (in the United States, $50 US; $75 international) for everything above/ground press makes from now until the end of 2013. http://www.abovegroundpress.blogspot.com/2012/10/aboveground-press-20th-anniversary.html There are a whole bunch of publications in the works for 2013, but I'm not going to mention any names.

Born in 1935, and initially raised in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood of New York City, John Allman, author of eight book-length collections of poetry, two chapbooks, and a volume of short stories, was a high-school drop-out who earned his diploma in night school while working as a lab tech for Pepsi-Cola. Eventually turning away from science for the humanities, and knocking about in many jobs, he earned degrees in English Literature and Creative Writing from Hunter College and Syracuse University (where he worked with Delmore Schwartz and Philip Booth), while becoming more and more involved in writing poetry. At the age of 44, after some years of having his work appear in journals, he published his first book, Walking Four Ways in the Wind (1979), with Princeton University Press in its Princeton Series of Contemporary Poets. His most recent poetry collections are Loew's Triboro (2004), Lowcountry (2007), both from New Directions, and Algorithms, prose poems (2012) from Quale Press. His Inhabited World: New & Selected Poems 1970-1995 (1995) was published by the Wallace Stevens Society Press. His recently completed collections, Older Than Our Fathers and The Blue Gazebo, are making the rounds, looking for a publisher. Allman has received two fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, a Pushcart Prize in Poetry, and the Helen Bullis Prize from the original Poetry Northwest. He earned his living teaching college English and retired from that in 1997, to have more time for writing. He lives in Katonah, NY, with his wife, Eileen, a Shakespeare and Jacobean Drama scholar and writer. They spend their winters on Hilton Head Island, SC. Spread the word.

Artists' Talk Saturday, October 20th from 12-1:30pm at 6018NORTH 6018 N. Kenmore in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood http://www.facebook.com/events/116408688515680 Caroline Picard moderates artists discussing their work from the exhibitions Home: Public or Private? and The Happiness Project. Artists include: Jennifer Karmin, Kirstin Leenaars, Lise Haller Baggeston, Harold Mendez, Meredith and Anna, Carron Little, Troy Briggs, Rebecca Beachy, and Collective Cleaners We all know public art but what does it mean for an artist to make art for the public, in public? What is "in public" and who is a "public"? Judith Butler recently questioned Hannah Arendt's "the space of public appearance" stating that we need to ask the purpose of public space, how a public forms, who appears where and when, doing what, and what are the conditions that supports this appearance? This discussion asks what is "the space of public appearance" for an artist and is there a distinction between work made for "the space of public appearance vs. work that is made for the studio and gallery? Who is the public (or plurality) that work is being made for, and how is this public (or plurality) meant to respond? Home: Public or Private? an exhibition of installations & performances at 6018NORTH October 5th-28th Guided private tours: Saturdays at 2pm & 4pm and Sundays at 2pm RSVP at http://6018north.weebly.com/rsvp-for-the-home-show.html What happens when our private life becomes public and public space becomes private? Located in a mansion on the north side of Chicago, the exhibition presents multiple artists exploring this question through installations within the rooms of the house. The investigations and activities presented explore the social, cultural, and political ramifications of our shifting conceptions of public and private space. Artists include: Teresa Albor, Lise Haller Baggesen, Rebecca Beachy, Sandra Binion, Troy Briggs, Deborah Boardman, Sandra Binion, Cuppola Bobber, Keith Buchholz, Chelsea Culp and Ben Foch, Collective Cleaners, Meg Duguid, Daniela Ehemann, Maria Gaspar, Jane Jerardi, Jennifer Karmin, Nance Klehm, Joseph Kramer with Radius, Carron Little, Trevor Martin and Victoria Fowler, Lou Mallozzi, Jesus Mejia and Ruth, Harold Mendez, Katrina Petrauskas, Jesse Schlesinger & Vintage Theatre Collective. Home: Public or Private? is sponsored by Chicago Artists Month. 6018NORTH is a non-profit space for experimental culture, installation, performance, and sound. http://www.6018north.net ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

He was the first in Canada to take up the poetics of William Carlos Williams. His career spanned generations. I saw him about a year ago and his brilliant mind was still sharp though he was physically infirm. We talked for about six hours, until I was exhausted. He didn't want me to leave. His life was Canadian poetry. Rest in peace, Ray. See you at the World Series. The author of more than fifty volumes of poetry, he live the entirety of his life in Toronto, and was once called the citys most loved poet. If you can find Stephen Cain's essay, Sousters Toronto, I would highly recommend it. With the email he originally sent out, James Deahl included this short bio for Souster that he wrote for a publication called The Ambassador: Raymond Souster was born in Toronto during 1921 and has been a leading member of the Great Generation for the past 70 years. Souster won the Governor General's Award for poetry in 1964 (for The Colour of the Times), was presented with Canada's Centennial Medal in 1967, won the City of Toronto Book award in 1979 (for Hanging In), and was made an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1995. He was a founding member of the League of Canadian Poets and served as LCP President from 1967 to 1971. He is the author of well over 70 books, largely of poetry, most recently Easy Does It and Never Counting the Cost. Souster served in the Royal Canadian Air Force during World War II. In the 1950s, he edited first Contact and later Combustion, the foremost Canadian poetry magazines of their day. He also ran Contact Press for 15 years (1952 - 1967), which published many of Canada's most important contemporary poets. Souster lives in Toronto with his wife Rosalia. http://rpo.library.utoronto.ca/poets/souster-raymond -- writer/editor/publisher ...ottawater, above/ground press & Chaudiere Books (www.chaudierebooks.com) ...coord., SPAN-O + ottawa small press fair ...poetry - grief notes: (BlazeVOX) ...2nd novel - missing persons www.abovegroundpress.blogspot.com * http://robmclennan.blogspot.com/ ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

To view this piece, you need to install the free Shockwave plugin from http://vispo.com/sw . On Lionel Kearns is an interactive piece. Move your mouse over the screen as you experience it and click on stuff. On Friday night, Lionel and I did a reading/presentation in Vancouver at the Peoples' Co-op Bookstore. Lionel presented and read some new ideas/poems, and I presented On Lionel Kearns. I did On Lionel Kearns in 2004 before I'd met Lionel, actually. We'd struck up a conversation on the old canpoetics list. I was amazed that he was doing so much work that's toward digital poetics back in the sixties-through-eighties. The only other Canadian poet who was doing work toward digital poetics at that time, so far as I know, was bpNichol. Chris Funkhouser used one of Lionel's poems as the epigraph to his book on the history of digital poetry. ja http://vispo.com > Anyone know where I could view Lionel Kearns' cine-poems created with > Gordon Payne? > > A couple of titles: > > "The Birth of God" (1973) > "Negotiating a New Canadian Constitution" (1974) > > Many thanks. > > Camille ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Folks, One of my students, Neal Stidham, is writing on Harry Crosby as poet and publisher. The Rothenberg anthologies have helped to give Crosby some visibility even as his major works have gone out of print. An issue of interest is -- what poets have read, been influenced by, or responded to Crosby in their work? We've found a surprising few. So now the appeal to the broad readers of poetics .... Can you think of poets, or specific poems, informed by or responsive to Harry Crosby? Thanks!

This seminal piece of protest literature was reproduced in the summer of 2012 in an edition of 100. The text was printed letterpress on pure cotton paper and the photographs were reproduced from the original paste-up and tipped in by hand. Each copy has been signed by the author. $20 SPIRIT PHOTOGRAPHY: A FIRESIDE BOOK OF GURUS by ZEPHYRUS IMAGE Spirit Photography: A Fireside Book of Gurus (1973) by Michael Myers and Holbrook Teter is arguably the greatest book produced by Zephyrus Image. Spirit Photography is essential reading for anyone interested in photography, conceptual art, artists’ books, and the unique cultural climate of the Bay Area in the '70s. This facsimile was printed letterpress and is faithful to the original in every way, right down to the errata slip. $12 ___________________________________________________________________________ To Order: Order direct from Cuneiform: [1]http://cuneiformpress.blogspot.com/ If you prefer to pay by check, please it send to: Cuneiform Press | UHV/A&S | 3007 N.

The poems exist in tha= t magical place where words, images and ideas collide, creating connections that previously had never been." The rest of the review is here: http://robmclennan.blogspot.ca/2012/10/camille-martin-looms.html LOOMS is now available at SPD . . . http://www.spdbooks.org/Producte/9781848612358/looms.aspx . . . . as well as most any other online source or bookstore. Cheers! Camille Meredith Quartermain: In tightly woven tapestry, Martin's =93backstreet songs=94 re-invent a music of knowledge that navigates the hucksterism and catastrophe threatening our planet. The movement of her threads is fugue-like, punctuated by oboes and clarinets, mockingbirds and cicadas. Here, in the dream-space of time-lapse film, forms of life and ideas collide and morph, rippling through centuries of human consciousness to unravel as quickly as they ravel. Here, above all, Martin makes it possible to dance among our =93origins in snake oil,=94 our =93crusades to mirages= =94 and our =93accidental fictions.=94 Arielle Greenberg: =93A dreamscape on the outskirts of town, =93in the badl= ands of the vernacular,=94 these hopeful, haunted poems populated by children an= d prisoners =93hover between=94 realms domestic and exterior, real and imagin= ed. Like candles described herein, this book gives off a melting, tactile glow.= =94 Description: The title of Looms signifies the weaving tool as well as the shadowing appearance of something, These "woven tales" were inspired by Barbara Guest's statement that a tale "doesn't tell the truth about itself; it tells us what it dreams about." The strands of their surreal allegories converse, one idea giving rise to another, and the paths of their dialogue become the fabric of the narrative. In a second meaning, something that looms remains in a state of imminent arrival. Such are these tales, like parables with infinitely deferred lessons. --=20 Books: http://www.spdbooks.org/Search/Default.aspx?AuthorName=3Dcamille+martin http://www.shearsman.com/pages/books/authors/martinA.html Website: http://www.camillemartin.ca Blog: http://rogueembryo.wordpress.com =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.
