Hi Gabriel
I think the means of delivery is less important than the content. Although
the opposite is also a valid procedure for many poets.
Although the avant-garde has and I'm sure does make use of new materials and
new media, and that these offer up new possibilities of communication, the
key thing remains the content rather than the delivery mechanism.
But perhaps these are inextricable?
poem = system
poem = mechanism
poem = performance
poem = media
poem = participation
poem = process
poem = artefact
poem = proposition
poem = hypertrophy
My question though is who are the british -female- avant-garde? I can name a
few, but can people share some names here?
Best as ever
