Comment by Kerri Pullo on August 2, 2012 at 11:16pm: I mean "Isis" from Desire. .....Joey is a very good song as well. Honestly, AFTER blood on the tracks I think Desire is is best album. What is??? "IsIs" on Blood on the Tracks....is that some lingo I don't know referring to "If you see her say hello????"

Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 2, 2012 at 10:34pm: I'm tyring to.... "IsIs" is on either "Blood on the Tracks" or "Desire." I like that song. Lately I've been thinking about the Joey Gallo song, which is on one of those albums.

Yamsemics. Amazing what you can do with yams.

Comment by Kerri Pullo on August 2, 2012 at 7:35pm: DVS this last one looks tasty to eat! are there any fruitsemics in there?

I was thinking about my next Gasemics and I believe it will be inspired by Bob Dylan's "Isis" it seems somehow fitting for me right now ;)

Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 2, 2012 at 12:25am: If you didn't see the blog, Bruno Neiva sent me this. Finding asemics in crunched up waxed paper. I can see them anyway clear as day.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 2, 2012 at 12:23am: BTW, Rebecca Resinski sent me some great work too. I think she's excellent but don't know much about her.

Rebecca's piece & mine are more examples of straight asemic writing. I've been told the earlier book projects in this group with Cheryl Penn produced a lot of Asemic Visual Poetry. To me, that's more like Guido's work where you can find asemics embedded right inside recognizable images. Obviously, we're open to everything but maybe this accounts for some of the range you see.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 2, 2012 at 12:09am: Here's something I sent Svenja Wahl - so it doesn't seem like I'm just being critic & commenting on everybody else working so hard.

Guido - I am re-reading a William Burroughs biography - where Burroughs visits Henri Michaux, so I have great moments of asemic history on my mind.

Comment by Guido Vermeulen on August 1, 2012 at 11:55pm: Probably AG was jealous of De Corso’s BOMB poem (for insiders only!), smiley

Comment by De Villo Sloan on August 1, 2012 at 11:48pm: I don't know why AG didn't wear a gasmask more often.

Comment by Kerri Pullo on August 1, 2012 at 10:22pm: it's a quick ride out of Squaresville......Gasemics Series 1 no. 3 Gasemics Ginsberg.
