I (Julien Blame) was born in 1942 at Rognac, on the banks of the lake of Berre, once a sky-blue pool of the sea, today a marron glacé. He lives in Paris and Marseilles and is as nomadic as possible.
I (Julien Blame) published his first review Les Carnets de l’Octéor in 1962 for four issues, then took part starting in 1963 with Carmello Ardin Quin in the pubblication of Ailleurs for eight issues; in 1966 with Jean-François Bory he created Approches for four issues and with Jean Clay and A lain Schifres Robho for six issues.
In 1968 he moved on to the free press and parallel newspapers taking part in the publication of several different periodicals:
Vivalib, Pirate, Géranonymo (sixteen issues) and a daily paper: Liberation.
In 1975 he finds his real voice again with Doc(k)s:
Doc(k)s 1/4: Latin America
Doc(k)s 5/6: First international network
Doc(k)s 7/8: Japan
Doc(k)s 9/11: New international network
Doc(k)s 12/14. Yugoslavs and Catalans
Doc(k)s 15/18: Poles and Corsicans
Doc(k)s 19/22: the countries of East Europe
Doc(k)s 23/26: Russia of the dissidents
Doc(k)s 27/34: the French-speaking “dock”-yard
Doc(k)s 35/39: The U.S.A. on both coasts
Doc(k)s 40/43: China and the unofficial poets
Doc(k)s 46/49: the international network for the third time
Doc(k)s 50/53: the Spaniards
Doc(k)s 54/58: the Germans
without mentioning the three special issues on mail-art.
So I (Julien Blame) founded his first group in 1959 and since too much it’s been nothing.
Occasional contributions to reviews of the four worlds, group and individual exhibitions around the planet, presentations, festivals, recitals and other performances in the middle of lands and on the edge of seas... And the choice is still too broad:
The reviews he is faithful to, the movements he escapes, nomadism transformed into pilgrimage... What would remain?
A real participation in a few reviews: Vou (Tokyio), Diagonal cero (Buenos Aires), Vers Univers (Rotterdam), De Tafelronde, (Antwerp), Ovum (Montevideo), Manhattan Express (Riva), Tam Tam (Parma), Lotta Poetica (Illasi).
A few sound poetry episodes which he remembers: the Nouvelle Revue d’Art Moderne (Paris), Baobab (Reggio Emilia), Breathing Space (Washington) and the record done by Anastasia Bitzos re/erased in Berne.
A few groups in which his fugitive’s instinct was masked. l‘Eventail (1959) Hexa-One (1968), Vivlalibe (1969), Grand Mixage (1978), Polyphonix (1981).
