derek beaulieu: no more poetry that looks like poetry

NO MORE POETRY THAT LOOKS LIKE POETRY, THAT ACTS LIKE POETRY, THAT IS INSTANTLY RECOGNIZABLE AS POETRY; I BELIEVE THAT POETS SHOULD LIKE TO WRITE IN A WAY WHICH DOESN’T RESEMBLE WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE, THEY SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY CONTEMPORARY IN FORM AND CONTENT.

derek beaulieu: steal my work!

From a post by Derek Beaulieu:

I post free downloadable PDFs of  many of my publications, including most of my full-length books. I believe that today’s reader seeks writing in different forms and that reading has taken on different shapes. By releasing books as PDFs in to the collective commons, writing can better engage with new, liquid, forms of reading and collaboration.
I believe that releasing my writing online for free encourages new and unexpected ways of people engaging and responding with the writing; it  will encourage experimentation and reaction. I encourage authors to scan your publications & release them online as a free PDFs.
So here you go, I’m giving it all away.

Visual Poetry on the Page: With, Within, and Without the Word explores a movement that asks viewers to read the works as visual art. Unlike concrete, written poems, a visual poem “typically includes many other elements than alphabetic text,” including any number of mediums or artist manipulation, including painting, photos, digital manipulation or any other means to “obliterate the boundary between visual arts and literature.” “Visual poetry is what we can see,” organizer Crag Hill said in his curator statement. “It can be what we see when we see within, behind, and beyond words, when we see through parts of words, through and with letters, parts of letters, the ineffable marks we make on and in spaces we inhabit and aspire to live with and for.” Continua a leggere→
