mOnocle-Lash Anti-Press news

mOnocle-Lash has been silent but not idle this winter, and are ready to announce the release of five new publications (including one at 1,000 pages in three volumes!), plus some new distro material.

All are available via the mOnocle-Lash Website.

This release nearly coincides with the Marginal Arts Festival in Roanoke Virginia, which will be bringing together many scattered members of the mOnocle-Lash family including John M. Bennett, Bradley Chriss, Reed Altemus, Megan Blafas, bela b. Grimm, Jim Leftwich, Tomislav Butkivic, Keith Buchholz, Warren Fry, Tom Cassidy, Olchar Lindsann, and others in he Fluxus and Eternal Network. For this reason we’ll be including a reading of poems from Bennett’s massive new Textis Globbolalicus collection and the new Anti-Prophesies anthology among the festivities on Saturday, March 5.

While many of these are perfect-bound and not available for trade because they must be ordered through the printer online, all except the TLP are available as free downloads as well, from the website:

NEW RELEASES

  • Textis Globbolalicus, by John M. Bennett. Introductions by Jim Leftwich, Olchar Lindsann, and Bob BreuKl.

Spanning three volumes and nearly 1,000 pages, this is THE DEFINITIVE collection of texts in that that most indecipherable of tongues, Globbolalia, by its only native speaker, the inimitable Dr. John M. Bennett.
Vol. I: 354 pp., Introduction by Bob BrueckL, cover by C. Mehrl Bennett.
Vol. II: 351 pp., Introduction by Jim Leftwich, cover by Blaster Al Ackerman.
Vol. III: 292 pp., Introduction by Olchar E. Lindsann, cover by Musicmaster.

  • Avant the Avant-Garde: Childhood and Family in the Culture of the Avant-Garde, compiled by Olchar E. Lindsann.
Childhood and family are rarely highlighted in discussions of, by, or about the avant-garde; this exploratory investigation takes the form of hundreds of short passages gleaned from memoirs, letters, poems, and autobiographical works of avant-gardists from the past 200+ years, and numerous introductions and biographies, woven into an impressionistic survey of this neglected aspect of avant-garde life.

Xerolage 48 – Poemics (POEtry + coMICS) by Poemic Blog

New work by Potr Szreniawski, Mateusz Suchecki, Nelle Hannes, Rosaire
Appel, Satu Kaikkonen, Jonny Gray & Sven Staelens.

from the intro:

There are many definitions of poemics. Poemics can be understood as an
art combining elements of poetry and comics, the space between poetry
and comics, or a place where poetry and comics meet. Sometime poemics
are classified as visual poetry, sometimes as experi- mental comics,
and sometimes as both. We think poemics can be a great way of
expression, perhaps that is why we create them.
