Madawg!
Thank you for the beautiful weaving!--
working on poem to send for more collaborations--
many pieces have done--made by using lines from texts in call and responses for scores for voices--many are on web, you can see by search of my name--(sorry have no memory for addresses)--
great favorite in this line is William Burroughs, the cut up method he and Brion Gysin worked with--great examples and discussionsof this in THE THIRD MIND and also in THE BURROUGHS FILE and interviews in THE JOB--MINUTES TO GO by Gysin--
the way i started doing this, wd get a rhythm in the head--and wd trigger phrases--so wd open a book, which wd suggest another--and use two to three and even four--to go back and forth choosing words to make new phrases--a combination of chance, intuition and cutting and pasting in a sense--collaging--with the rhythms/voices in head--some have been performed hither and yon--
one cd make plays this way also--last night was trying out loud for fun lines from Shakespeare's TRAGEDY OF RICHARD THE THIRD and Jarry's UBU ROI--throwing in lines of one's own in a mix of french and english phrases and sounds--moving into sound poetry a bit--imagining encounters between the demented blood thirsty lame hunchback Richard and Ubu with his belly that he pusheth forth into the universe!--
the cyber cafe i write from is called BLUE DAWG BAGELS--a cousin perhaps of Madawg, this Blue Dawg? --
or "Mad Dog"--old slang for MD what is it, 40? or 20/20?--that liquor they call "liquid heroin"--
"they are trying to make me forget my amnesia"--Carl Solomon
