With exploration of a broad range of forms and methods, the essays discuss audio-modality, image-text hybrids, erasure, musical poetry and musical influence, alphanumeric translations, lyrical improvisation, neo-concrete poetry, using the archive and found poetry, mythic imaginings and the use of tactile experience.
