HOW2: LEGITIMATE SPACE
A Review of How2, by Tom Hibbard
"As far as we know it, humanity dwells in an enormous space. The ends of the universe are beyond the reach of time as it would be measured by the longevity of our civilization. It is in this space that the web journal How2, a bi-annual of "modernist and contemporary innovative writing practices by women," has etched its beginnings and direction, perhaps similarly to the way Euro-American pioneer women first viewed the space of this continent's western plains." ...
Ron Silliman on How2, 16th May 2005
"Perhaps the single best example of the ways in which the web has emerged as a more powerful publishing solution for progressive arts than traditional print forms is How2, the onsite zine that has evolved from the relatively simple newsletter HOW(ever) originally founded by Kathleen Fraser, Bev Dahlen & Frances Jaffer 22 years ago" ...

The Argotist Online
The Argotist Online is devoted to poetry and poetics. It publishes non-mainstream poetry, and features essays and interviews sympathetic to it. This is done not in a polemical spirit but merely as an apologia for such poetry.
By non-mainstream, I mean poetry that is aware of the plasticity of language and which places connotation and ambiguity over denotation and precision of meaning. This sort of poetry invites interpretation and allows for plurality of meaning as opposed to hermeneutic closure.

False Membrane: Fiction and Film Intertextuality
The membrane between fiction and film is a false one—mostly driven by the market and consumer culture—when in actuality, fiction makers and filmmakers each desing and distort narrative, create and collide imagery, seduce and tangle with audience through words or images. Focusing on the inherent textuality of both mediums, and admitting that both language and the moving image ARE mediums, chiasma productions in coordination with chiasmus press has launched and online film series featuring work by Karl Lind, Andy Mingo, Lidia Yuknavitch and Mia De Bono at:
http://www.chiasmusmedia.net/product.html
To continue our mission of correcting culture, chiasmus press and chiasma productions will release Northwest Edge iii: The End of Reality, a fiction anthology and DVD compilation, featuring some of the Northwest’s best writers and filmmakers—forthcoming Spring 2006.

PRAISE FOR NORTHWEST EDGE:Deviant Fictions and
NORTHWEST EDGE: Fictions of Mass Destruction:
"As a reader, you are invited to appreciate literary deviance–challenges to normative genre, syntax, chronology, typography, etc...–as well as thematic deviances..." –The Stranger "Some writing...demands fierce, total mental engagement of the kind that makes tables overturn in Paris cafes and compels revolutionaries to topple cabals. Or maybe just inspires you to turn off your TV for a while...Northwest Edge provides this kind of intense reading." –The Seattle Times "The real bomb that Northwest Edge drops is including writers out of the mainstream whose work is much less likely to appear in Northwest Standards like GLIMMER TRAIN or THE SEATTLE REVIEW. It will especially appeal to writers interested in the boundaries of new fiction." –American Book Review "Stories that hold questions about race, class, gender, sexuality, and violence open as a hand. Bravo. Refreshingly wicked." --Small Press News |

Signs Special Issue—
War and Terror: Raced-Gendered Logics and Effects
Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society invites submissions for a special issue titled “War and Terror: Raced-Gendered Logics and Effects,” slated for publication in Summer 2007.
“In war time, only men matter,” claimed Mary Sargent Florence and C.K. Ogden, two British antiwar suffragists during World War I1. Writing in Jus Suffragii, the newsletter of the International Woman Suffrage Association, they noted that hostility to feminism was a deliberate, sustained, and central project of nations involved in war-making. More recent studies of women and war, as well as feminist studies of war suggest the intensification of deep-seated cultural, racial, and gender stereotypes during war time. Peace is commonly associated with “feminine virtues” and war with regimes of masculinity. Rape in war seems to reinscibe violent subjection as a “normal” facet of racial, ethnic, sexual, and gender relations. The logic of “feminization” appears to structure practices of terror deployed to induce helplessness, dependence, fear, and compliance. As “the enemy” is feminized, the “warrior-hero” mythos reestablishes linkages between citizenship and military service, as well as leadership and presumed male superiority in managing national security, remasculinizing the domestic politics of warring nations.
Although proponents of democratization optimistically predict the elimination of war, the specter of war continues to haunt the global community. Depending on the definition of war, there are between sixty-five and two thousand sustained armed conflicts on-going in the twenty-first century. The once inviolable boundaries of the nationstate have become permeable to terrorism, transnational policing, and international peacekeeping forces, as state and anti-state terror refigure space, hierarchies, and freedoms. Taking on the mantle of the national security state, some liberal democracies have joined their authoritarian counterparts in violating the rule of law.
How do contemporary armed conflicts and terrorist engagements challenge received views about the dynamics of race, gender, ethnicity, nationality, and sexuality in violent conflicts? Are feminism and feminist scholarship becoming casualties of growing militarism? Do feminist analyses of war and terror offer unique insights into these phenomena?
For this special issue, we invite submissions that address the complex dynamics of race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality in war, war-making, and in the uses of terror against and by states in the prosecution of civil wars, ethnic conflicts, nationalist and imperialist military interventions. We welcome innovative analyses of women’s involvement in war and terror (as combatants, military and political decision-makers, interrogators of military captives, providers of logistical support, medical personnel, sex workers, hostages, political prisoners, UN peacekeepers and peacebuilders, human rights workers, NGO activists, and activists in resistance to occupying forces); the impact of war on women (as direct casualties, as mothers, as war refugees, as victims of sexual violence by militants, combatants, and domestic partners, women’s experiences of loss in relation to families, communities, nations); factors that contribute to women’s support for and resistance against specific wars and terrorist campaigns; particular racial and gendered processes and effects associated with specific kinds of war (civil, ethnic, nationalist, imperialist); the gendered and racialized logics and rhetorics of war; the production and reproduction of gender, race, and sexuality in and through war and terror; unintended racial and gendered consequences of war and of terrorism; cultural representations and cultural productions of and about race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality in war and in terror, historical approaches to these complex questions. Analyses that encompass transnational and comparative perspectives are particularly welcome.
Please send submissions to Signs between March 1 and July 1, 2006. Guidelines for submission are available at http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/Signs/instruct.html.

Extract: "Perhaps the single best example of the ways in which the web has emerged as a more powerful publishing solution for progressive arts than traditional print forms is How2, the onsite zine that has evolved from the relatively simple newsletter HOW(ever) originally founded by Kathleen Fraser, Bev Dahlen & Frances Jaffer 22 years ago. Whereas the original publication never grew large enough to warrant perfect binding, the current online zine has evolved into a rich gathering of diverse materials & resources from all over the world. If How2 couldn’t be captured in perfect binding today, that’s because some of its content literally requires the web as a platform." ...

GilbertandGrape and their lone ranger, a 20 kilo stuffed moose head, propose to travel the coasts of England and Norway in a Volvo Amazon to search out and collect stories from people with an interest in nostalgia, document vague memories, exchange taped music and watch sunsets at the end of the day. Lone Ranging Romance will end when GilbertandGrape return the lone ranger to the sunset in Nordkapp where the midnight sun never sets, exploring clichés and cultural heritage and iconography in the context of our times. (elg I solnedgang)
“ In Lone Ranging Romance we endeavour to question an idea of nostalgia, clinging to our memory of an idea of a culture that is not experienced as ours but a nostalgic reminiscence from before we were born.”

Clemente Padín & Hartmut Andryczuk would like to invite you to send contributions for the netart project "FOR UNIVERSE". We consider Guillermo Deisler as one of the first netartists ever; he worked on this art field even before the Internet became a mainstream means of communication ...
Clemente Padín & Hartmut Andryczuk would like to invite you to send contributions for the netart project "FOR UNIVERSE". We consider Guillermo Deisler as one of the first netartists ever; he worked on this art field even before the Internet became a mainstream means of communication.
Guillermo Deisler started different visual poetry projects in Latin America. In the 70’s he went into exile in Europe and published UNI/vers, a magazine which came to be highly regarded in experimental poetry and art circles. Deisler died in 1995.
UNI/vers stood itself in a completely new art space, one which had its own specific language and images.
As a netart project, "FOR UNIVERSE" will only be linked to on-line media and the world wide web. At first, it will be published on www.hybriden-verlag.de. On a second step, it could eventually be found on different servers or homepages. You can of course create your own spaces; nevertheless, all the information will be available at the hybriden site for a start.
We intend to spread the free, open-source artist network worldwide, of which we consider Guillermo a pioneer, considering his use of the 90´s contemporary communication means. Build your own universe.
To contribute would mean to send us any type of digital documents related to the spirit of open-communication art (and to Guillermo as well). It could be an image, an mpeg file, an animation, an mp3 file or QuickTime movie. It could also be a written or spoken text or a scanned document. Please make sure the image files don´t exceed 500 kb. each, or 10 mb. for audio (preferably mp3) and film files.
We´d rather you used the following formats: sound files (mp3, AAC or aiff), image files (jpeg or tiff), movies (avi, mov, mpeg), text files (rtf, pdf). We are not really Windows fans (as it´s not an open-source system), and neither do we trust Word documents.
Please send us an e-mail to:

Clemente Padín y Hartmut Andryczuk le invitan a colaborar en el proyecto de netart "FOR UNIVERSE". Recordamos a Guillermo Deisler como uno de los primeros netartistas, antes de que la internet se convirtiera en espacio principal de comunicación.
Guillermo Deisler fue el fundador e iniciador de diferentes proyectos de poesía virtual en América Latina. En los años 70 se exilió en Europa y finalmente publicó la revista UNI/vers, muy conocida en la escena de la poesía y el arte experimentales. Deisler murió en 1995.
Creemos que UNI/vers estuvo inserta en un espacio completamente nuevo, específico en su manejo del lenguaje y las imágenes.
El proyecto de netart "FOR UNIVERSE" estará reservado a los medios virtuales y publicado en la red de redes. Primeramente, en la página www.hybriden-verlag.de. En una segunda etapa podrá ser presentado a través de diferentes servidores o portales. Pueden ustedes crear sus propios universos, pero en un principio la documentación estará disponible en la página de hybriden.
Nuestra filosofía será la de difundir las redes de comunicación artísticas, abiertas y de software libre, y consideramos a Guillermo uno de los pioneros en este tipo de difusión, mediante las redes contemporáneas en los años 90. Crea tu propio universo.
Contribuir significa enviarnos cualquier tipo de documento digital relacionado al espíritu del arte de la comunicación abierta (y también a Guillermo). Puede ser una imagen, un archivo mpeg, una animación, un archivo mp3 o una película en QuickTime. También pueden ser textos escritos o archivos de voz, documentos escaneados... Pero se debe ser cuidadoso con el tamaño de los archivos, que no pueden exceder los 500 kb en el caso de las imágenes, o 10 MB en el de los archivos de audio (preferentemente mp3) y las películas o animaciones.
Preferimos los siguientes formatos: para audio (mp3, AAC o aiff), para imágenes (jpeg o tiff), para animaciones (avi, mov, mpeg), para textos (rtf, PDF). No somos fanáticos del sistema Windows (no es software libre) ni tenemos confianza en los documentos Word.
Para contactarse por correo electrónico, en principio estarán disponibles las siguientes direcciones:

One Day Conference: June 10th 2005
This conference will address the relationship between writing and visual culture. It is particularly interested in exploring how technology continues to shape our understanding of the visual, spatial, experimental, and iconic properties of writing ...
alright folks, we're not even going to ask nicely. this is a straightforward stickup. give us all your fiction, video, and/or short films. Chiasmus Press and Chiasma Productions announce Northwest Edge the Third: The End of Reality, a fiction anthology/compilation DVD which challenges regular form, content, socio-political movement, pop-culture burp, gender-bending leg spread, gray matter folds, mathematical orgasm, physics excess, patriotic hoo-hah, tele-visioning, tele-vangeling...you get the fucking picture ...
This conference will address the relationship between writing and visual culture. It is particularly interested in exploring how technology continues to shape our understanding of the visual, spatial, experimental, and iconic properties of writing.
Questions to be addressed can include:
- How have the visual properties of books, printing, painting, and computing influenced the development of writing practice and its theory?
- How have technological advances encouraged art forms to combine word and image in new ways?
- What opportunities for re-examining the visual properties of writing does new technology offer?
- What new forms of social practice (reading, community formation, textual dissemination) does an attention to the visual suggest?
Forms to be addressed can include:
- Electronic and digital culture (eg: Digital Poetics, Hypertext, Programmable Media, Blogs, E-poetry)
- Textual Experimentation (eg: Visual and Concrete Poetry, Modernism and Postmodernism, Procedural or Aleatory Poetics)
- Emerging or established 'hybrid' genres (eg: the artist's book, the performed poem, the illustrated page)
- Collaboration (eg: between visual artists, writers, interactive media specialists)
If you would like to offer a paper please contact either Nicky Marsh (nm8@soton.ac.uk) or Stephen Morton (s.c.morton@soton.ac.uk). Further details about the conference will be available shortly, and details will be posted on our website at www.soton.ac.uk/~bepc/forum.

are pleased to announce the launch of ‘reception’/ ‘recepcion’ #1, a new journal of experimental translation. ‘reception’ will not only explore contemporary traditions of poetry and performance writing in other languages, but also aims to extend the very notion of what translation itself constitutes. The translations in ‘reception’ investigate shifts and re-mediations between languages, but also creative transformations of form, media and physical space: in short, they constitute performative works that seek to re-invent every aspect of the poem rather than limit themselves to a purely linguistic transference. The first issue, featuring visual poetry from Chile and ‘linguistically innovative’ poetry from the UK, includes work by: Andrés Anwandter, Martín Bakero, Sean Bonney, Anamaría Briede, Gregorio Fontén, Harry Gilonis, Martín Gubbìns, Doug Jones, Aodhán McCardle, Stephen Mooney and Alberto Nónimo, with an introductory essay by Felipe Cussen.

Now that you are here you will want to accept an assignment, complete it by following the simple but specific instructions, send in the required report (photograph, CD, video, etc), and see evidence of your work posted on-line. Like a recipe, meditation practice, or familiar song, the prescriptive nature of these assignments liberates you from creativity and allows you focus on what you are feeling and experiencing.
Since Learning To Love You More is also an ever-changing series of exhibitions, screenings and radio broadcasts presented all over the world, your documentation is also your submission for possible inclusion in one of these presentations.
Every day we check to see if any new reports have arrived, we spend hours drifting through the site, reading your life stories, watching your videos, listening and looking. It is one of our favorite things to do, and we know that thousands of other people feel the same way.
