December 11, 2019The Desires of Mothers to Please Others in Letters - Bernadette Mayer .
“Evokes the complexity of real persons as it simultaneously reinvents multiple genres: epistle, prose poem, and memoir. Written between 1979 and 1980 while pregnant with her third child, Mayer extends her imaginative letters into meditations for us all on life as it is lived in real time, with its responsibilities and manifold desires”.

The Invisible Structure BERNADETTE MAYER
The invisible structure was E = mc2
……… in the original experience it is not identified
as the vague. it is a function of the whole situation,
& not an element in it, as it would have to be
in order to be apprehended as vague
the outcome of a process
no experience is a unity unless it is aesthetic
is it true?
exploitation of the energy characteristic of
the material used as a medium
a tape of many people saying the same word
people sitting on the stage, actions on tape
something that changes with the weather or day
six performances
colors become more vivid when seen with the
head upside down.
