Crg Hill's poetry scorecard

AngelHousePress presents NationalPoetryMonth.ca

a celebration of poetic form of all kinds and an homage to those poets who try to extend the 
definition of poetry. This year's edition, which marks our fifth 
anniversary, is a tribute to the Last Vispo, an anthology of visual 
poetry edited by Nico Vasilkais and Crag Hill and published by 
Fantagraphics in 2012. The site contains visual poetry, asemic writing, 
collage, concrete poetry and other forms of whimsy by artists from
Australia, Canada, the USA, Finland, Hungary, Italy, and Sweden. Each 
day in April a different visual poem will be shown. AngelHousePress 
thanks all who participated and sent work for consideration and wishes 
the month had at least forty five days in order to showcase all the 
great poetry we received.

Now out from Otoliths: *Densities, Apparitions* by William Allegrezza

80 pages Cover image by Deborah Meadows ISBN: 978-0-9808785-8-5 $13.45 + p&h URL: http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/densities-apparitions/17278481 This book explores influence by crossing out or responding to poets who have influenced me. The Whitman and Andrade pieces are cross-outs, and anyone familiar with the first version of C*alamus* will notice that I did not respond to the entire collection. I left out pieces that I did not think would cut well for my project or pieces that have too much personal meaning for me. The response pieces to Leopardi and Neruda are probably even more telling, for in these pieces, it is sometimes difficult to see how the pieces directly relate to the original. Still, the influence is there reworked through my experience. —*William Allegrezza* *William Allegrezza* edits the e-zine *Moria* and teaches at Indiana University Northwest. He has previously published five books, *In the Weaver's Valley*, *Ladders in July*, *Fragile Replacements*, *Collective Instant, *and *Covering Over*; two anthologies, *The City Visible: Chicago Poetry for the New Century **and **La Alteración del Silencio: Poesía Norteamericana Reciente*; seven chapbooks, including *Sonoluminescence*(co-written with Simone Muench) and *Filament Sense* (Ypolita Press); and many poetry reviews, articles, and poems. He founded and curated *series* *A*, a reading series in Chicago, from 2006-2010. In addition, he occasionally posts his thoughts at http://allegrezza.blogspot.com.

 

CFP: Emergent Communities in Contemporary Experimental Writing May 4-5, 2012

Hosted by the Poetry and Politics Research Cluster, University of California, Santa Cruz This conference is organized around experimental writing and its many, varying communities including performance art collaborations, small press publishing and editorial projects, virtual and digital work, academic affiliations, and intersecting aesthetic, social and political identities and representations. The goal of this conference is to embrace the productive and generative connotations of community and experiment as innovative acts and encounters that are always in the process of both venturing to do something previously untried, and questioning and testing the very boundaries and mores, however contingent, established by those attempts. Of particular interest is how writing communities might be changing historically in the early twenty-first century, and how writers theorize and make use (or not) of various conceptualizations and practices of community. What do such formations include and leave out? What are the conditions of possibility for a community to emerge? From where does one emerge? And into what? How are writing communities that share an often contested collective vision themselves experimental formations for attempting new modes of relation, affiliation and creation? Confirmed respondents include: Tisa Bryant, Sueyeun Juliette Lee, Anna Moschovakis, Vanessa Place, Juliana Spahr, and Ronaldo Wilson. The call for papers is open to all writers and academics, and we encourage proposals that continue to push the critical/creative divide. We welcome interdisciplinary papers that engage philosophy, history, publishing, pedagogy, art and digital media. Conference activities will include panels, round-table discussions and a small press book fair. Each day will culminate with evening readings of the guest writers’ creative work. Please submit an abstract of 350 words to ucsc.poetrypolitics@gmail.com by December 1, 2011. Individual speakers will be placed on panels and allotted 15-20 minutes to present their work. Panel proposals are also welcome. Selected papers will have the opportunity to be published on a post-conference website and in an edited volume of essays inspired by the conference. Please email Andrea Quaid, aquaid@ucsc.edu or Juliana Leslie, julianaleslie@gmail.com if you have any questions.

 

Nico Vassilakis' Vowelist

I've inhaled, drunk, performed, breathed, yelped...this piece many times. But this version takes Nico's score back to the paleolithic past and forward into the post-lithic future (I hear the monoliths in Kubrick's 2001...):
