Vaast Bin N Ephemerisi

by Michael Peters

Vaast Bin N Ephemerisi Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Poetry. Like the vast stellar bin or the blackbody that Michael Peters alludes to in this cosmic fertility myth, the primal "poems" and images that comprise VAAST B1N; N EPHEMERISI absorb all impinging radiation (the raw data that Peters' inks into it) and re-radiate an energy that is uniquely characteristic of the glowing body (the book object, and Peters himself). Bristling and oozing with storm petrels, glowvents, mutend probes, hoary tropes and other wild-type organisms, the spectral pattern of words and images is not only unique and characteristic of Michael Peters, but it's mathematically precise. It's his genetic kernel reduced to coded language and diagrammatic rhizomes, urgently re-propagated--without restraint--for our detectors (senses) to absorb, ponder and assimilate into our own beings. VAAST B1N is a visceral lexicon that is both mechanical and organic, that grates and augers down to the raw, bubbling cistern of creation.

Review:

Out of kosmos comes order or is it the Other way around? Out of dizorder, chaosmosis. Always n-1: startling, I mean starling. Was that an o or a 0? Sterling, to say the least: Dizzorder as drain refill. My head spins & that's a compliment. This is Kosmos-Vispo with a vengeance: tighten your beat cells and parade your chutes! HCE = here comes everyTHING. I can't wait for this to be over so I can start it up all over again. Stars to starlings, me little darlings. Jimmy Joyce with a computer Rolls Royce. That nebula ain't nebulous at all, mapped on the starling's chest it is a blade duplicator. I love it. --Pierre Joris

Review:
