AF2 Exclusive: New visual poetry & prose collaborations by Jim Leftwich & Jeff Crouch
"We" by Jim Leftwich & Jeff Crouch
Jeff Crouch
The margin[alia] aesthetic. It's not Derrida. It's not pansemic, and it's not asemic. It's not the marginalized, the minimal, the minority. It's not trash and tatters. It can comprise all of these things, but it also includes the esoterica of the off-hand, the overly educated, and the arcane. This aesthetic marries the tails of the Gaussian distribution, but it's not a marriage to the middle so much as to the edge of a different plane. It's a tie-in rather than a knot. It's the margin/ on and off.
Jim Leftwich
The last time I saw a sea moose - it was late last winter, in Death Valley - she was rising like a noctilucent fossil from the floor of the Ubehebe Crater. The last time I ingested a sacred plant was in the last year of the last millennium.
I often dream of reading. I assume you do too. Early one morning as I
was waking up I dreamed I was reading a book by William James, Varieties of
Asemous Experience.

Gothic asemics by Maxima Strange
Gothic asemic vispo by Maxima Strange (Bradner, Ohio, USA)
I am very pleased to welcome Maxima Strange. This is her first appearance on Asemic Front 2 & her first contribution to the Asemic Front project.
Maxima Strange is a new member of the IUOMA-Ning asemic writing group, which is producing some excellent work these days as well as providing a place for new asemic writers to develop. She has been making correspondence art in the gothic mode & is now applying that to asemics & image-text.
AF2 readers know gothic asemic art is one of the themes I am exploring in the project, so I am very excited to feature work by Maxima Strange. I hope we can look forward to more!

New asemic vispo by Chris Wells
Asemic vispo by Chris Wells (Ohio, USA)
Asemic Front regular contributor Chris Wells shared this piece with the project via the IUOMA-Ning asemic writing group. We have seen some exciting activity at that location recently. I am thrilled to be able to share the piece with you on AF2.
In various ways, Chris Wells has been engaged in recent AF2 discussions & themes concerning copy art-derived vispo, distortion & concrete poetry elements in contemporary asemics. We have also had some interesting discussions about geographic clusters of visual poets & the evolution of styles.
In this piece, Chris makes notable use of the modes mentioned above in his style that is growing increasingly unique & recognizable. Deepest thanks to Chris Wells for ongoing participation in Asemic Front.
