Bruno - fantastic blog! I'm partial to the coffee stains at the moment. This is a must-see for asemic folks

I'm sure Cheryl can clarify the page info clearly & succinctly. It's around 3 am in South Africa. She usually comes on early in the morning her time. Thank you for your patience. As I mentioned earlier, I would like to print additional copies - that's something for Cheryl and me to work out - but I have some questions about binding too.

Hola Samuel. Tenemos 15 copias. Habíamos planeadopara incluir 12 poetas en el principio. Hemos ampliadoque a 15. Me alegro de que se trata!

Comment by Samuel Montalvetti on May 31, 2011 at 11:20pm

Hola

Estoy notando una pequeña confusión, En las explicaciones se dice hacer 12 copias, cuando las listas de participantes son de 15 personas. por lo tanto la cantidad de copias seria 15.

En cuanto a la calidad del papel, como esto dependerá del procedimiento técnico utilizado, podríamos convenir que un gramaje mínimo de la hoja estaría dentro de los 120gr, por ej. puesto que una impresora puede imprimir en estos gramajes.

Here's a reference that provides a useful concept:

 

Letterisme - Isadore Isou proposed the poem of the future will be purely formal and devoid of semantic content (visual poetry - literally)

Asemics: - paraphrased from Rosa as I understand it - The combination of activities that can select, define 'words' 'texts'  - a vast overflowing of energy that escapes the concepts (textures) of what represents order and appears chaotic -reason and intuition - perhaps it is asemics that is a short cut which helps me escape for a moment the duality to which we are condemned.

Translation of Rosa'a text - sorry I have not had time to re-order the words - what Rosa says - I AGREE with!! - Thanks Rosa :-)

Thanks Cheryl by helping with the translation!  The text was duplicated without giving me account, sorry!  Interesting your comment Of Villo! the Dynamo and the Vírgen, an energy is suceptible of measurement and control .....y the other is mysterious. ...  We submit to some and we yield us to the other In the asemic seems toexpress espontaneamente a combination of that activity conciente that selects, defines and puts words (texts) and the vast thing of the energy that overflows and escapes from the concepts (textures) what represents órden and what appears caótioca....  The reason and the intuition. ...  Perhaps it Asemic is a shortcut thatpermits me to escape for a moment of the duality to that we are condemned!
