Comment by De Villo Sloan on September 27, 2013 at 9:30am: Welcome to the group muller jean francois! I hope you share some work.

Via Jim Leftwich, I received a link to a fantastic, free e-book of Otherstream writing, which includes vispo and asemics (see link).

There's an intro by the great vispo theorist Bob Grumman & work by IUOMA members Sheila Murphy, John M. Bennett, and David Chirot as well as many networkers such as Miekal And & Jake Berry. Really great work by David Chirot on the cover!

I am totally thrilled to find there two friends from school days: Mike Basinski & Anne Pluto. Many vispoets know Basinski, but Anne is a fantastic writer too to check out.

Take a gander:

Comment by De Villo Sloan on September 23, 2013 at 10:59am: Thx Christopher, great links! alteredscale offers a diverse range of folks working in asemics & vispo, ranging from members of this group to literati - I am surprised to see - such as Nick Piombino, one of the architects of Lango. I'll be checking these out more than once.

Comment by Christopher Skinner on September 23, 2013 at 10:32am: I have just had some new work published online along with some other excellent asemic artists at alteredscale. There are some other new pieces on foffof and i'm an artist man too!
