HI MAC:
HI MAC:
WHATEVER YOU DO KNOW YOU ARE AN ARTIST
BEING AN ARTIST INS’T HARD
IT’S LIVING WITH YOUR CONCEPT THAT CAN BE.
TAKE ‘ A ‘ DEEP BREATH AND THEN LET WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING
OUT INTO THE WORLD AND LET IT DO ITS THING !
WE WILL BE WATCHING AND WISHING YOU WELL.

In about oh I dunno ten hours, I’m launching a project I’ve worked on for ten years.
I’ve been somewhat anxious about it, somewhat like my stomach straining on its leash. But I’m happy to report, this morning I woke with such a clean, bright feeling!
I’ve been thinking of what I wanted to say beforehand and how I could possibly say it. This project has always been difficult to describe, because it’s so many things all at once. It is:
A film and a chapbook.
A 3D scan of my soul.
A literary tab of acid.
A love story.
The softest sci-fi imaginable.
An evergreen world of terrible fracture.
Somehow both: in the oldest tradition, in the hyper avant-garde.
A prophecy.
The emergence of something like anima.
Poetry as technology.
The ultimate marijuana companion.
As Lisa Robertson describes in Nilling, uncannily, melancholy as perspectivialism.
An experiential theory of Reincarnation.
The hope I carry, that I can really be a real artist.
A warning.
A living thing.
This project has lived inside me as though in that archetypical sci-fi image: the astronaut standing before a glimmering, alien mass. And the mass is in flux. Everytime I read it, everytime I return to work, it’s different. The flux, weirdly, is me.
And what will happen once its released? I have no misconception — if it’s to be a success, it will be a long and slow build (as poetry always is (I secretly hope it goes viral immediately.)) But how will I change?
?

the thing is I beat that devil out of me! Okay, it’s still there. It’s focusing on the roll out, rather than the product. The assumption on my part is the product is good. It’s just the marketing that needs work.
