Thanks for posting Nancy (NBS). "Bust Stop" (this is in the Yoma People's Gallery of Obsolete Technology & Cattle Mutations too?) is a stunner, just hitting me (totally subjective) that the work achieves a unity. It's perfection in a Classical sense (I can feel NBS blushing in her Maine tower). Vispo relies so heavily on fragmentation & I guess disruption that a piece like "Bus Stop" is an unusual but welcome experience.
One's own natural fragmentation can become really exhausting every 3 or 4 or 7 years. I appreciate the thought-provoking comments, Mel Anie and DVS, thanks.
"Shadow Asemics" aka "Eco-Asemics" (DVS). This path is producing some tremendous vispo too (not mine) but people who look for asemics in the natural world (or urban landscape).
But eco-asemics are like Buddhism a lot of the time.
Some people are doing a lot with glitched asemics & vispo (glitchtxt). So I unearthed some drafts of a collab I did with Ficus Strangulensis March 1, 2018. This one was apparently not posted. So I share it now becus its time hath cometh:
I've stumbled upon a New to me [fr, "neuf"] source of asemic writing and... since it's 'written' by insects I shall assume that, as writing, it is unintentional!
25.12.21 Dare Ficus S., ...what bugs me about this bark-beetle asemic calligraphy business is the fact that it is far more interesting than the combinations that I can create.Thanx for sharing . SinCelery, Richard Canard
Ficus offers proof of something I have feared recently:
An "Insect Trust" has burrowed or burroughs into the asemic movement. These are produced by mutations caused by the ever-more-powerful chemicals needed in the extermination process.
I was writing to an associate just the other day about the toxicity of asemic gas. Several in this group succumbed to it, in fact.
Joey Patrickt is making six-legged chairs.
I hope you continue to monitor the "insect politics."
I like the "Swedish Death Metal Asemics"... you give me ideas; what is the size of this work, can we exchange a work of this kind. I will look at a realization asemics writing. Greetings from Germany. I would like to have your postal address.

Original Jim Leftwich foundations from AF2 to Artbyjac, BG, Sir Litter Richard plus other sundries.
Deepest thanx to JL for always thinking of AF and generously sending m-a.
Can't wait to see some new collabs.
BTW - In terms of new pieces, I don't even know if you could call them :asemic." So let's not worry about genre.

Nancy, this one is a minimalist you! It's so busily tranquil.
DVS, if we're not worrying about genre, I'd love to cross some sundried fragments to a JL foundation, please.
