The wonderful "Dear Sir," poetry journal has posted two recent poems entitled "I sound like this, you sound like that" and "I called home and said, 'I like it here very much,'" respectively. The poems' source material was a body of written and recorded work collected during a stay in Japan and The Netherlands. Using a Max/MSP patch, the written bodies (poems, journal entries, etc.) were reformed by the frequencies of field recordings in an attempt to reconcile the expressionistic word with a heard truth. At the bottom of the page is a collage of utilized field recordings called "My Picture Take My Picture". I've included a download link to the recording in the "Poetry" section of the website.
