Text of the page (random words):
t the sources that never spoke before can come to light their encounters with one another their fragmentariness makes their borders permeable to one another it heightens aspects other than informational content such as sound and figuration in any given individual fragment at the same time the content of those fragments reappears in the gradual accumulation that takes place over the course of a long work the content recurs on a larger scale and in a different light or in a way that s quite transformed as new meaning it s that accumulative aspect that s impossible to convey in excerpts so i ll just re cite the crucial notions here and end with a couple of almost randomly selected pages from the anna o addendum sequence of the bounty silence is a spaciousness productive of new relationships between fragments rather than representative of a silenc ing fragments no longer function as fragments instead gaining connotative and semantic richness becoming in their nature something other than their documentary origins the cumulative effect of constellations of these parts brings content back into the foreground in a new way and it s a content that s dependent upon the original specifics of the fragments though not reducible to them tombs of women ornamented who wants me dead referred to as water in a tube given x y sisters in slings of ars enter foyer breathe alike

0 comments friday april 16 2010 lisa jarnot some other kind of mission burning deck 1996 this is an incredibly disorienting book so different from jarnot s later work but definitely containing some of its seeds i have experienced a long and uncomfortable process of coming to adore her writing especially the relatively recent night scenes and finding this at the root of it makes me want to reread the rest in its light some other kind of mission has the feel of cutup work and i suspect that something like that is involved in the generation of its material many of its pages are scanned or photocopied images of typed handwritten drawn upon collaged sheets with most of the words crossed out and many of the remaining phrases can be found in the conventionally printed text the book as a whole seems like a travelogue with the i and a few recurring names driving drinking sleeping there are many farm animals sometimes in trucks jarnot s familiar chickens sometimes as surreal roadkill miles of strips of pig recurs frequently there are explosions which sometimes seem like car bombs sometimes like war at least once a gas station exploding time seems to pass they seem to have been on the road a long time but this is all dim shadowy seen through a mesh of irregularly reiterated and varied sentences and fragments whose juxtapositions make up what is more an eerie sense of narrative than a narrative proper that s the main prose text the title pages usually include a short poem in verse a bit closer to jarnot s later style but without the dominant tone of playfulness i associate with much of the latter there s one very strange reiterative verse section in conventional type emperor wu and there s a final section of marginalia with little reiteration of parts that switches between paris helen greek stuff and relatively straightforward almost diaristic sentences here it s as if the two main underlying strands of the whole work are being separated out and laid bare the trojan war and a complicated set of contemporary interpersonal relationships but i don t get the sense that this explains what preceded it instead it seems like a ground is being established that itself turns out to be ghostly when there are a few repetitions or steinian disorientations of language it feels like a powerful drug coming on in a minute we ll be back in that strange variation on the production of reality that this book enacts in response here s a piece based partly on a travelogue text i ve been keeping around for thirteen years i m glad to finally use it we swamp through

at least krupskaya 1999 this is an absolutely gorgeous book it s composed of seven pieces and in five of them each word is followed by a period and a space capital letters only occur at the beginning of proper names in combination with varying line and stanza length and differing degrees of sentence like behavior inman s form produces a breathtaking range of ways to structure sense here are some

slump placed beside a book whitecap and this from ten pages earlier looked after a lysine of such ink crook only the farther he moves into him striped sweat separation by periods gets amplified or softened by line length shorter lines tend to emphasize the independence of each word so that even when conventional syntax is potentially present my tendency is to read for sonic qualities whereas i look for sentences in the longer lines in one word lines there s a finality to each word whereas over the course of extended reading the emphatic pauses in longer lines form a stammering rhythm it s like physical gesture broken into its component micro gestures small muscular adjustments and shifts in balance or like seeing a film frame by frame except that the stops affect the individual moments for instance the intonation curves i hear in my head are very different from those i d hear in a normal version of the sentence and pronunciation is affected as well i always hear the with a long e and a as ay rather than ah or uh all this has its effects on content as well often the content deals with the history and theory of communism and sometimes with the work of other writers a sentence fragment like the principal objective of action seems less suspended or floating than it would without the periods whose regularity of visual and sonic intonation weaves everything into a shared fabric made up of universal separation if this is parataxis it is driving me wild it s an unusual variety in which the distance between juxtaposed parts is doubled one kind of distance varies with the degree and kind of content while another is relentlessly regular milton babbitt 50 words each in tribute to the great serialist composer works through five permutations of ways of structuring its number ten five word lines two columns of 25 single word lines each etc mel nick s adds an extra space after each period in a series of four line stanzas drawing from i believe david melnick s book pcoet in i e late in the book commas replace the periods and its alarming how much of a difference this makes perhaps the most gorgeous piece in the book is the three page lieu instead written in two columns with highly variable margins without regular punctuation every small cluster of words here is incredibly charged it s something like robert grenier at his best extended through larry eigner channeling clark coolidge plus elegy i ve always been a bit of a punctuation fetishist constantly replacing colons with dashes adding and removing commas and so on finding the ways these marks structure meaning inman gets an amazing amount out of just a couple of punctuation devices here but though the sense is one of exhaustiveness i finished the book with a wonderful sense of opened possibility it doesn t hurt that the writing itself is so graceful so tuned to minute particulars to music and to ethics at the same time what follows is a mere warmup playing around in response

original about horace i ll read the other books it s hard to take the hail caesar bits and i feel strange about the coloquial stuff its often mean tone contrasted with or jeez that s moralistic it s bound up with the hot life in its engagement a model of social poetry worth investigating it really starts to get good around 14 or 17 or so here are a couple of dashed off half assed bits written under the horatian influence i d like to make a day s or week s project of responding to horace s poems with more care and effort john dana jess lewis lisa karl michael kevin bridget john jordan
