oh yeah, as well as doing a short reading on sunday evening in the garden, Byron Coley will also chair a panel discussion on sunday afternoon..
''sound poetry in post-tongue culture.'
In an era where the very concept of 'word' has been consumed by its own viral context, a group of composers and improvisors has taken certain
precepts of spontaneous verbal composition and applied them to musical communciation. This has created a mode of conversational sound poetry
that often exists without the impediment of the human voice as a constituent member of the creative team. Noise/music, live/taped/sampled, improvised/composed, psych/volk/free, all of these basic incarnations of individual-spirit engage in variations of phonic regurgitation. This talk will explore the synchretic and editorial roles of defined-thought-process and social-history inside this continuum. From the history of the american mimeo underground to the ghost-promise of internet pornography. Nothing is forbidden.
