'born to clue gnat dance'

Wow! There must be future, amongst all this,
somewhere, where poets communicate to those who, for
old time's sake, are still listening.

A friend of mine, great poet, died in late March. I
think most of you know him. I just can't believe he'd
be doing this 'what-not'. I just don't get it, the
vanity, and where it might lead one. I think of a
hamster running endlessly on its wheel. All those
calories burned, what ambition, time spent nowhere?

Some've said that poetry's a societal role and, I
think, at this rate doomed to long-term siesta.
Machine made yah-yahs don't give us a more feeling
individual, nor assist us in both appreciating and,
more importantly, comprehending one's relationship to
exterior world--and the very real life process of
being.

Sugar Hiccup : Applet 2 of The Deitel Mods

2005-09-02 Thread Lewis LaCook
Sugar Hiccup
Applet 2 of The Deitel Mods

http://lewislacook.corporatepa.com/the_deitel_mods/content.php?page=sugarhiccup

The Deitel Mods is a series of variations on an applet
based on examples found in the book Java How to
Program (Prentice Hall, 1998) by H.M. and P.J. Deitel.
The book is an oft-used textbook for computer
programming students wishing to learn web programming
using the Open Source, cross-platform language Java.

Most of the mods are generative/reactive media
engines. Graphics are drawn live, sometimes as a
result of your input(moving the mouse, clicking the
mouse, etc.). The poem is assembled live as well, and
is sometimes influenced by your actions. The poem
accumulates with each applet, each applet adding a
line to the previous one. Each line of the poem is
randomly chosen from an accumulation of lines; each
applet adds another accumulation to accomodate the new
line.

Alex,

Well, you might be more constructive here; your post didn't come across as
an inquiry at all. Why don't you cite work that you find 'effectual' and
explain why rather than posting sententious and vague attacks. You could
even post some of your own work.

I've posted some work, but the point's missed. I think
I was pretty clear with regards to my opinion, which,
alas, is solely that. Thanks.

A number of words... Held silence... I mean writing... You do see what I
mean? It is writing. Fooled into a silent history.

To write a poem...

Words on a page under one story... Another kind of final paragraph. In the
rest of me, a poem. That bad, the general mistrust, making it impossible to
make. That is your name, in the particles of bereavement, the preface to
context.

I reading writing and pieces from poems - one might think with nails torn -
science confined - something in me too... work and the world seeking
release; and then sacrificed.

Broken voices of ethics... to try harder to only writing being good...

The opening of nothingness... walls in the mirror, mutilated breath garbled,
translating the curious, by enacting despair - writing - fearful, located in
the encounter, with furious incomprehension.

Something new will happen.

I keep rereading, a book in the retina, subjugating another kind of words...
thought an escalator... emerging impairment.

Terror speaks passion, which includes consumerism; garbled bliss

You're relatively new to this least, Alex, and do you think you've had time
to assess well the efforts of the work you've seen in that short time? If
so, you are far ahead of me in that regard. I don't claim to be particularly
insightful or speedy, though. There are some of these tangents here which
continue and will continue with or without your approval. Clinging to the
dead (forms), perhaps a fine academic exercise, will only keep you where you
are, which is not a terrible fate. It's safe, at least. A pleasant memory,
and I'm all for memories, no matter how we may choose to change them over
time to suit our own interests.

One thing that has inspired me is the sheer amount and diversity of work
some produce on a daily basis, machine-generated or otherwise. For me, it's
informative and inspiring, as well as challenging. I don't pretend to
understand everyone's individual intentions (I have my own! *winks*), but I
try to contribute in a positive way. And on occasion, I have both failed and
succeeded, which pleases me, but perhaps doesn't do more than that. I'm a
poor judge.

Oof! I'm generally not so expla-po as I consider myself weak at it and
usually avoid it altogether, but I'm trying to get over my vulnerability.
Everything's a personal victory. Looking forward to reading your greater
additions and evolutions...

Subject: Now or Never for the Arctic Refuge SEND ACTION~a27486u30516

Dear Alan,

For two decades, conservationists have fended off attempts to drill for oil in 
the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, a spectacular landscape that is home to 
caribou, polar bears, muskox, wolves, grizzly bears, and scores of other 
creatures.

But now the refuge is facing its most serious threat ever.  Congressional 
proponents of drilling are planning to use a backdoor budget maneuver in the 
federal budget-setting process to try and authorize drilling.

TAKE ACTION

The fight is expected to come to a head within the next few weeks, so now is 
the time to SEND LETTERS TO YOUR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS urging them not to despoil 
this special place:

*  QUICK OPTION:  If you only have a minute, send the message below, as is, by 
simply replying to this email.  (This option works only if you received this 
email directly from the Conservation Action Network.)

*  POWERFUL OPTION:  Personalize your letter.  Go to 
http://takeaction.worldwildlife.org/ctt.asp?u=30516l=103917 and follow the 
instructions for adding your own thoughts to your message.  Decision makers pay 
much more attention to personalized messages.

If you have any questions or problems with taking action, contact us at [EMAIL 
PROTECTED] for help.

DO MORE

Do even more to stop the drilling -- Storm Capitol Hill!  Come to Washington, DC, 
on September 20th, to tell Congress to keep the Arctic Refuge off-limits to oil 
drilling.  Join thousands of fellow activists at 11 a.m. on the West Lawn of the 
U.S. Capitol to rally with well-known speakers and advocates.  Then, storm the Hill 
and visit the offices of your members of Congress.  Attending this event will be 
the best way to make your voice heard on this issue, so sign-up here:  
http://takeaction.worldwildlife.org/ctt.asp?u=30516l=104185

Can't make it to DC but still want to do more?  Call your members of Congress 
toll free at 1-888-8WILDAK (1-888-894-5325) and make the main points from our 
letter below.

Also, please forward this alert to your friends and urge them to help save the 
Arctic Refuge.

Conservation Action Network activists like you have taken action to protect the 
refuge over and over again, helping to win close votes several times.  We are 
counting on your help again.

Sincerely,

Randy Snodgrass
Director, Government Relations
World Wildlife Fund
Washington, DC

LEARN MORE

On August 8, President Bush signed into law a national energy bill that doesn't 
authorize drilling in the Arctic Refuge, making it more likely that Congress 
will use the budget process as a backdoor way to allow energy development in 
the refuge.

The groundwork for using the budget process to authorize oil drilling in the 
refuge was laid last spring when Congress passed a budget resolution that calls 
for generating $2.4 billion in new revenues and that gives proponents of 
drilling in the refuge the opening to propose energy development in the refuge 
as the way to generate the new money.  As a result, key House and Senate 
committees are expected to approve drilling in this special place.  Language 
specifically authorizing drilling would need to be included in a budget 
reconciliation bill and approved by Congress.  That vote may happen soon and 
won't be stoppable by a filibuster, so it will be a tough fight to win.  Speak 
out loudly and clearly and don't let it happen.

For years, oil companies have been heavily lobbying to open the coastal plain 
-- the biological heart of the wildlife refuge -- to oil drilling. Such 
development would transform this sanctuary into a spider web of roads, 
pipelines, sewage plants, drilling pads, and housing for thousands of workers 
that would destroy the wilderness character of the land and limit the free 
movement of wildlife.

LETTER TEXT**

Dear (your senators and representative's names will be inserted here):

One of the most important environmental decisions in years may occur within the 
next few weeks -- the vote on whether to allow oil drilling in the Arctic 
National Wildlife Refuge.  I urge you to oppose using the budget reconciliation 
bill, or any other legislative vehicle, to authorize energy development in the 
refuge.

The relatively small amount of oil likely to be found within the refuge doesn't 
justify the damage that would be done to this special place.  Moreover, 
allowing oil drilling in the refuge would set a dangerous precedent for the way 
our country treats our natural treasures.

I urge you to cosponsor legislation to designate the coastal plain of the 
Arctic National Wildlife Refuge as wilderness (S. 261 and H.R. 567). If you 
have already cosponsored the wilderness bill, thank you for joining 23 senators 
and 119 representatives in 

Re: 'born to clue gnat dance'

2005-09-02 Thread Alex Jorgensen
Dear Bob,

The mistake one makes is in the assumption that words
mean anything. It's the context, as you know, which
emboldens. This idea, while not clearly articulated or
perhaps understood by many in the past, is what's new.
This is what one is attempting to accomplish by
'cut-up methodology' (although many are still unaware
of this). The methodology is outmoded, the gamble that
something barely representative of intelligible
communication might arise is the stooge whereby actual
communication is relugated to periphery and to the
detriment of--. One might say a scribble is something,
maybe can coerse others to become excited by it, but
this is not poetry's role (as it is to make people
excited by what is communication and the possibility
thereof). Surely it is fun, which is worthwhile (of
course), but that is something entirely different. A
parallel could additionally be made between what is
created and how it is read (spoken word), and how its
worth is perseved by audience carried by waves of
emotion and not by what is articulated. To denegrate
poetry so, because it might provide one with easy
answers to the hard process of discovery, I might
liken to academito lower one's standard as to
unconsciably deficate on one's self. And I want to
suggest that words like 'academic exercise' says
nothing, nada, and more manipulative in political
context--and leads one to sadly consider the Pied
Piper of Hamelin. And this recognition is no more
academic than Cummings, Kenneth Patchen, John Cage,
Creeley, and O'Hara (among others). To Deconstruct is
something, sure, a given, but its the space between
the words and behind the words that meaning something
and, remember, when they mean nothing, we are
cheapened.

As Pound said, and I'm paraprasing a quote passed
along by Robert Creeley, a poem must stand on the legs
of a biped, and its the work untimately that's
important (or, again, the communication therein). And
so Bob, as one is keenly aware of the process and
because we are good friends, I will not bore you with
further details.
