Martin Bakero makes poetry with breath, syllable, phoneme, verse, healing and joy: creating a nomenclature between the acoustic image and the poetic body. He uses anti-rhetoric invocatory metrics, transmuting the distance between the word and the thing, the real and the delusion; exploring the frontiers between sense, sound, smell and vision which are diffused in various electroacoustic systems. His compositions employ various techniques of theurgic cabalistic reading-writing and extended vocal works. In direct connection with radio poetry astronomy, he explores what he calls ArTeluric, in which he works with sounds from the interior of the earth and other stars thanks to infrasonic pickup instruments and spatializes them.

A 2017-18 Movement Research Artist-in-Residence, Alexandra Tatarsky makes work in the unfortunate in-between zone of comedy, poetry, dance-theater and deluded rant, sometimes with songs. They have performed their own work and the work of others at La Mama, MoMa PS1, 47 Canal, New Museum, The Kitchen, and the Brooklyn Museum, among many others. Chapbooks include Vacant Love (love letters for vacant lots) and Embrace the Tree (on pagan metal and neo-fascist fantasies). As the Shanzhai Lyric, they publish mini-compilations of bootleg t-shirt poems. Writings on hyper-capitalism, nonsense, and mimes are forthcoming in ArtReview Asia, Folder, and Garlands.
