In her essay, \"Writing in a Foreign Language,\" Etel Adnan reflects on her experience as a child trying to learn Arabic by copying exercises from old grammar books. Although she did not always understand the meaning of some of the terms, she enjoyed the act of drawing each letter. She felt that through this magical act, she was able to master and recreate her father's language. This is something that the adult artist Lin May Saeed (featured in this issue) also does, using letters to form a more-than-human conversation. The act of turning prescribed symbols and forms into \"something else,\" of not conforming to discipline and form, of evoking new possibilities, is similar to what poet Simone White describes in her column as \"the refusal of compulsory service.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eYears later, Adnan found the freedom she was looking for in two new languages: painting and poetry, which she describes as \"an open brotherhood, open to women, men, trees and mountains.\" In one pithy passage, she writes, \"Do I feel in exile? Yes, I do. But it is so ancient, so long-lasting, that it is no longer my nature, and I don't really feel like I am suffering. Sometimes I even rejoice in it. The poet is above all pure human nature. Therefore, he is human, just as a cat is a cat, and a cherry tree is a cherry tree. Everything else comes 'later.' It's all important, but sometimes it's not.

But who decided that poetry was something you should read in the first place? A 1980s article asks about John Giorno's Dial-A-Poem (featured in this issue's Survey column).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eIn this age of expanding collaboration between human and machine intelligence, we look back to the art and technological experiments of an earlier era, when artists, engineers, and scientists at the Center for Communication Research worked on the augmentation of acoustic and visual arts and performances, and the amplification of their circulation and distribution. Giorno focused on the power of the human voice, performing, recording, broadcasting, and echoing it as speech. His approach is crucial in this age, where language and technology interact through linguistic feedback. In Giorno's words, \"The telephone was a personal connection, one-to-one: 'You call me, I call you.' But I imagined that the telephone could become a medium of mass communication - a number that anyone could call, a number where you could listen to recorded poems... But it wasn't just that. I imagined that instead of one poem, you could record many poems.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eOur phones have become the portals of so many socialities: a mirror of reality and its violent horrors, an echo and record of the collective unconscious and its delusions. In these pages, Marcus Boon, in dialogue with K Allado-McDowell, writes: \"If the words of poetry appear in your mind, it is no wonder where they come from.\" We indulge in found words and fantasies, and we are with our voice assistants and chatbots. They, too, listen, see, speak and lie, just like us. \"I think it is very important when a new technology appears to quickly establish its revolutionary potential and potential, so that we can raise the bar of expectations,\" K believes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003ePoetry can be a technique for reconnecting with different relations and forms of knowledge, or questioning agency and voice. Erica Hunt imagines lines of poetry that respond to the liquid movement of a flock of birds. Alexis Pauline Gumbs*, in her forthcoming biography of Audre Lorde* (an excerpt from which appears in this issue), speaks of “survival poetics” and that “our lives are part of every expression of the earth…the earth is relational.” There is a place for poetics and politics to intersect, and I hope to see that repeated in these pages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Finally, if you will pardon me, a word of wisdom from the title of a 1974 Giorno record: \"Please, and Please, Disconnect.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MOUSSE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47375974826230,"sku":null,"price":3500.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/1621\/7078\/files\/5E4D7524-3299-4650-A575-EC0AADBB0280.jpg?v=1729677751"},{"product_id":"london-rave-flyers-1990-1996","title":"LONDON RAVE FLYERS 1990-1996","description":"\u003cp\u003e \"LONDON RAVE FLYERS 1990-1996\" (2020) by Acornly Matt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eA collection of flyers from raves held in London between 1990 and 1996.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e 216 x 140 mm, 84 pages, softcover\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 170, 255);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eRaves were popular in the UK from the 1980s to the early 1990s, but in 1994 the Criminal Justice Act put pressure on raves.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\"LONDON RAVE FLYERS 1990-1996\" is an archive collection of flyers from that time, and the designs from that heyday are an inspiring book (Ammel).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ammel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47410075795702,"sku":null,"price":3000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/1621\/7078\/files\/FF6BB673-2F35-4399-B2A9-0E124B001127.jpg?v=1730503299"},{"product_id":"ウェスアンダーソンの世界-フレンチ-ディスパッチ","title":"The World of Wes Anderson The French Dispatch","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \"The World of Wes Anderson: The French Dispatch\" (2024) by DU BOOKS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe 2022 feature film \"The French Dispatch: The Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun Special Edition,\" which is filled with Wes Anderson's deep love for France and print culture.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThis book is the Japanese translation of the official guidebook \"The Wes Anderson Collection: The French Dispatch,\" which introduces the behind-the-scenes of the film.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThis book reveals the various attempts made to incorporate Wes's style and design, based on his thorough aesthetic sensibility, into the film, as well as the setting materials and art.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt also includes rare photos taken during filming of the cast, including Timothée Chalamet, Frances McDormand, Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, and Tilda Swinton.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eLimited to 3,000 copies.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DU BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47410077597942,"sku":null,"price":5060.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/1621\/7078\/files\/C54012AC-E593-4ADE-8E5A-3EFFF051BAE4.jpg?v=1730545347"},{"product_id":"いっぽうそのころ","title":"Meanwhile, at that time","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThis is \"Meanwhile, Around That Time\" (2024) by illustrator Naoya Hata.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThis is Naoya Hata's first picture book.

Twenty-seven people responded to the invitation: a baker, a babysitter, an actor, a journalist, a tailor, a trumpeter and three painters. The artist photographed them while they were awake and asleep, and secretly recorded their private conversations behind closed doors. The artist provided each person with a meal and, with their consent, surveyed them about their personal tastes, habits, dreams and interpretations of the act of sleeping in his bed. Some answered as curiosity, a game, a work of art or, as the artist himself intended, as work.

This intense, sometimes surprising, sometimes endearing feature dissolves into something like a \"dream\" over eight days. The rigorous and sinful research methods, the refinement of intimacy and exclusion, and the constant curiosity that are the \"seeds\" of many of the author's subsequent works are already embedded in this work.
