For Class Week 9 - 11 19 09 - Post a Blog Response by 2pm the day of class to the materials shown below - We're looking at two artists William S. Burroughs (near historical) and Caroline Bergvall (contemporary), continuing our seesaw comparison between contemporary work and historical contexts. The rest of the works cited here are short papers about concrete and material poetics - most refer directly to concrete or visual poetics - and touch lightly on sound poetry - though some address sound poetry more directly. These are all short papers and most by artists whose work we have looked at and talked about in earlier classes - be sure to read all of these and be ready to discuss them in class.

"THE PURELY VISUAL VERBAL DOES NOT EXIST" this line in Paul de Vree - Manifesto. Is pretty interesting but seems to contradicted the foundation of sound poetry, with that said I do this its true that a pure visual does not lead itself without a vocal connection. I really enjoyed this manifesto.
