Re: 30 by Cecil Touchon
I found this work to be intriguing -- something to look at again and again. Challenging as well. And while I was looking, I came across Christopher Major's 7 ASCII poems which somehow I had missed -- and they are inventive, whimsical, and also thought provoking: a lesson in reducing texts to their basics. Thanks, Dan, for continuing this project.

Re: Vernon Frazer in Mad Hatter's Review
Vernon-- I especially like pre-nuptial arrangement -- both the arrangement of texts on the page and the music. This one is a treat -- a welcome morning eye-opener with much to experience and to think about. I've listened to the music several times through. Also, I was glad to be introduced to Mad Hatters Review. Lots of interesting work there.

Re: 365/365, Jennifer
Happy Birthday, Dan. I have enjoyed your journey from 40 to 41 very much. Your poems each day have given my days a bright jumpstart -- I don't know what you can do for an encore -- but these poems were fun, challenging, intricate, and touching. Do you have any plans for publication someplace? Enjoy your day. Selfishly, I hope you don't rest too long on your laurels. I am looking forward to your next project. . .

Intersections a twenty-day journal of the unexpected, a pdf book by Martha Deed
This is a mix of poetry, prose, and photographs -- and my first foray into using InDesign. It is an experiment with the possibilities of book publishing on the internet. I hope you will enjoy.

It is necessary to study volapuque! Para esse final de semana: 1- Intersections a twenty-day journal of the unexpected, a pdf book by Martha Deed The Library of Marvels has another resident writer: Martha Deed. The library of Marvels (http://arteonline.arq.br/library.htm) is a collection of my electronic artist books and, sometimes, I invite some guest to stay there with me. The first one was Joel Weishaus with his excellent Traces of the Catacombes, which I am sure all of you know very well . Now I am honored to have Martha Deed and her Intersections a twenty-day journal of the unexpected, a pdf book at the library. To read this poetical book is a great suggestion to this weekend. Below an abstract by Martha Deed, the Author: * Intersections a twenty-day journal of the unexpected is a mix of poetry, texts, and photographs, and the constraint is that it is an imaginary trip down Route 62 from Niagara Falls, NY to El Paso, Texas. The actual Route 62 is more than 2,000 miles long, so I would travel approximately 100 miles a day. I wrote and travelled every day from April 11 - April 30, 2006, which was also the 20 days immediately preceding an important birthday, so it seemed a good time to stop and think. I could not have imagined what lay ahead. * Also you find this book at the museum's pdf library, at: http://arteonline.arq.br/museu/library_pdf/martha_deed.htm Comments will be welcome!
