The Dark Bark
It has been six years since Rinty died at the pound in Brighton Beach.
And now, for the first time, audio of his selected poems is available to the general public. He would have wanted it this way. Of course, all sorts of problems remain. His assertion that he killed JFK still questionable. His assertion that he was the greatest Hamlet of the twentieth century not accepted by all.
But what is beyond question is that in these poems he gives us a glimpse into an extraordinary dog -- a spirit who, in these querulous times, can, perhaps, lead us to an understanding of what it really means to live and to hoope.
The very last minutes of this reading should be listened to with especial attention by those of you who are not quite convinced that the myth of the eternal return of a spirit, destined to again and again, bark at the dark until the darkness yields, is merely the embodiment of a vain hope.
See! They return!

After consultations, we have reconfigured the wherewecreate project.
The new and easy on you guidelines are listed below. The project needs
content to get started so please send soon.
Where We Create Project. http://newformsreview.com/wherewecreate/
The first project from the newly built newformsreview.com founded by Jason Nelson,
a net art and digital Literature portal and forthcoming peer-reviewed journal.
The Where We Create Project is designed to connect digital artists and writers (and
analog creators as well) through a website featuring photos and descriptions of where
artists/writers create. Our geographies and external landscapes are instrumental
in altering and forming the creatures we create.
What we need is the following sent to this address: [log in to unmask]
1. An image or two, 300 px by 300 px jpg or around there, of where you create.
This can be your office, your backyard, some coffee shop, whatever you want
to show the physical space(s) where you work.
2. Some text about that place and its meaning to you, your work, your life,
or whatever you feel represents the world in which you create. We are looking
for around five or six or seven sentences, but not much more.
3. Your name, any other brief biographical information, and where this places
you are talking about are: for example: Emporia, Kansas, downtown
office building, second floor in the back….
4. and a few urls so people can go see the work you create in that place.
NOTE: Please keep in mind the more personal space the better, and
that this isn't intended to showcase your artistic skills,
but rather share a small bit of your geography.
Cheers, Jason Nelson
