Everyone has to have a links page, so here is mine. These are all my favorite sites that relate to visual, experemental, sound, electronic, alphabet related creations, and regular old contemporary poetry. Also links to small presses, DIYers, and some resources on how to make artists books, etc.
Light and Dust Anthology of Poetry: ----This is vast, very vast. I have gotten lost in this site for hours. "An ongoing, pluralistic anthology of contemporary poetry, which includes complete out-of-print books, subsites for authors, genres, issues, and interchanges with poets in other countries"
Eratio Eidetics: An online magazine of visual poetry and other experemental or contemporary writing
Conjunctions: "Bard College's literary journal Conjunctions publishes innovative fiction, poetry, criticism, drama, art and interviews by both emerging and established writers...over 1000 writers and artists whose work challenges accepted forms and modes of expression, experiments with language and thought, and is fully realized art"
New Media: This is a page of links to some of the most amazing interactive poetry out there. Especially Nio --it is a MUST SEE. IT combines the ideas of sound poetry, music, conceptual art, and computer animation.
The Alphabet Synthesis Machine: A Java applet that allows you to create your own alphabet.
The Book Arts Web: A virtual gallery of artist books. Exhibitions, extensive links ranging from how-to information to personal sites of book artists.
Hunkamooga.com: Personal website of Canadian poet, Stuart Ross,"Toronto fiction writer, poet, editor, and creative-writing instructor. He has been active in the Toronto literary scene since the mid-1970s. He sold 7,000 copies of his self-published poetry and fiction chapbooks in the streets of Toronto during the ’80s."
Poets Against the War: "We suffocate among people who think they are absolutely right, whether in their machines or their ideas. And for all those who can live only in an atmosphere of human dialogue, the silence is the end of the world. — Albert Camus" a wonderful site, open to submissions of anti-war poetry. Works of "proffessional" poets as well as the measly unknowns
Interactive Poetry: Links and more links. This is a link to a links page. digital poetry, flash poetry, concrete poems, poetry games, etc.
The Scriberazone: Interactive poetry mixed with music. A lot of Flash animation poetry, a lot of techno, a little bit of hipster attitude.
Word Wizard: This is just a reference site, "for lovers of the English Language." Word Origins, and dictionaries up the A**.
