Matt Roberetson writes:
“This visual poem was the unplanned result of an afternoon spent
shredding boxes of unwanted printed matter. Refuse bags were filled
with a farrago of splintered mail, letters, statements, invoices,
newspaper clippings, advertising and other ephemera. Some of these
small thin shards, with their abstract and concrete marks, fell to the
floor. On closer inspection it became apparent that they could be
recycled for poetic purposes. Soon 128 individual strips were randomly
salvaged and collaged into a single cut-up composition. The resulting
score is to be read and vocally sounded in its complete form, in
quarters and/or overlaid versions.”
Matthew Robertson is a graphic designer and poet. He is Senior
Lecturer in Graphic Design at Bath School of Art and Design.
