Teaching<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the classroom, what I hope students will come away with\u2014in addition to strong technical skills\u2014is experience and inspiration to creatively think about how media and writing relate to other art forms and modes of inquiry. Students will be encouraged to be leaders in the creation and design of uncommon assemblages and hybrids which may very well be tomorrow’s commonplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research\/Scholarship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I am media artist and writer whose interdisciplinary work includes experimental sound and radio; video works; new media; experimental narrative; theoretical writings; and various media and literature hybrids. Since the early 90s, after having produced a number of radio art broadcasts, my work has focused on new genres and media that have uncertain status and value. Most recently, I have been exploring experimental translation, and its possible cross-overs with remix aesthetics, conceptual writing, and transmission art practices. A number of chapbooks, videos and performances have emerged from this project, including Monkey pOm<\/em>! (a translation of Hanuman Chalisa), Mao Vincit Omnia<\/em> (a translation of Mao’s Little Red Book), The Numbers<\/em> (a translation of a German translation of Robert Creeley’s number poems), and Twenty Beloved French Poems<\/em>, Treated Poorly<\/em> (a translation of 19th-century French poetry). I am currently working on a translation of Michael Maier’s 17th-century alchemical emblem book Atalanta Fugiens<\/em>, and Bright Arrogance<\/a>\u2014a column for Jacket2<\/em> on experimental translation practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
