Puiguitkaat 1978 Elder's Conference

here's one:  [yaligman]  (night-people) :  a word for seals

Yeah, My wife works at the publishing house that produced that work.. They
had an internal auction for storeroom "junk".. and that beautiful text was
among the treasures she brought home.. I think she paid 2 dollars for it.. I
still swoon everytime I dig into it... I was thinking (wishing) of doing a
mini-study of nasal-stop clusters or any of the phonosemantic or ideophonic
(choose your flavor of iconism).. aspects of that incredible eskimo
language. Are you interested in Iconicity in Expressive language? I have
been trying to educate myself in Iconicity studies for about the last 6
months. It seems like with the interest in Philadelpho Menezes here in the
group, there would definitely be some interest in the vast web presence of
Iconicity studies and it would make an interesting topic on the list. I have
seen some Iconicity references in Dick higgins work..

Here are some images I have been working on which illustrate some of my
interest in the subject.

 Phanerospace Series: Iconicity as Exolinguistic transhistorical
imageCulture.  (Noema in the Lifespace)

These Collaged "Spaces" were created using real and fictive language fonts.
Human forms are also included becoming Noema themselves.

These spaces are aimed at providing language delimiting experiences of
Iconicity and providing a kind of homage to the beauty of the biomorphic
mark. Exobiological Thought Cultures in Image File Petridishscreen.

I have also started to build a webbed "Indexical"  Shrine.. I tried to riff
off the Idea of Icon as in religious Icon but using doublings as a departure
and text patterns as "Iconic ground"..

Eventually the scrolling text will contain hundreds of links to iconicity
essays and resources as well as poetic and artistic departures into this
mysterious realm of emergent semiotics.. The images on the left activate
various Ikon "Madonnas".. These will be linked some day perhaps to poems..
Please submit one if you wish and I could link it in.. The poem should
somehow activate the relationship between the "mother ikon" and the "child
ikon" of each image.. a fluxus project? (a jumble of daedalusians)..

please excuse the webdesign.. its for IE only so far.. and its not perfected
but it works..

ars reacta,
Lanny
