My most recent book of visual poetry has just been released by Xerolage, an imprint of mIEKAL aND’s Xexoxial Editions. It explores that most hieroglyphic of letterforms, I, as both a graphic and a semantic object, complicating, accepting, rejecting, and recasting the seemingly seamless conflation of the word/letter with its meaning, signifier with signified.
A full-color chapbook of visual poems, my personal installment in a fantastic series of books curated by visual poet Dan Waber. The series seeks to provide a kind of definition of visual poetry through the only logical means available: through the work itself. Approximately 70 poet/artists have contributed to the series already, and the list seems to be growing all the time. A fascinating resource on what visual poetry is now, who is creating it, how they are doing it, and why.
A book of experimental poems at play with distinctions between prose and poetry, narrative and automatic texts, and organic and artificial intelligence. You can read a short excerpt here, and purchase it from Trainwreck Press using the link above.
Written in collaboration with Matina Stamatakis, Xenomorphia is, to my mind, a sort of love letter to language’s imagistic power and sensuality. It’s also the first book cover I ever designed. You can pick it up free from Wheelhouse Magazine.

“…language…gives all of itself in each of its fragments”
—Roberto Colasso
This short text marks the beginning of my explorations of language as a graphic object. Ripping and tearing at the atomic particles of syllables, it rearranges and reforms words into new constellations, creating a kind of Frankenstein’s monster of the semantic. writ10 is available free from VUGG, a press edited by the esteemed poets Jim Leftwich and Jukka-Pekka Kervinen.
Written in collaboration with Matina Stamatakis and Kane Faucher.
“[+!] is a post-code-poetry experiment, making de-composition into re-composition… art in it’s truest sense… a bizarre, compelling, visually stunning, important work. Lysicology may not be a part of your lexicon now but it will be…”
—Lucindo Anthony (Author, A Disease of Poetry)
In addition to contributing visual and linear poems for this text, I also laid out the interior. It is available in hard- and softcover formats, as well as digital download.

Novelist and literary agent provocateur Kane X. Faucher was kind enough to discuss the work with me at length, as well as to provide an in-depth review insightfully discussing the works’ major concerns.
