“I LOVE THE WEIRD, NOSTALGIC FETISHISM of the typewriter,” says poet and academic Dani Spinosa, whose new collection, OO: Typewriter Poems (Invisible Publishing), is a kind of extended love letter to the technology of a bygone era. A series of 50 visual poems that jump off from and reconstitute the work of such stalwarts of the avant-garde as John Cage, derek beaulieu, bpNichol, and bill bissett, Spinosa’s book exists at the nexus of analogue and digital approaches to poetry.
