This book is the first comprehensive study of Ricardo Basbaum's diagrams, cataloguing a body of work that has been integral to his artistic practice. In turn, the book offers an invaluable resource for anyone engaging with non-linear thinking and compositional work," writes Binna Choi and Emily Pethick in the Foreword. Produced as a result of the artist's exhibition at the Centro Galego de Arte Contemporáneo (2013), Diagrams, 1994-ongoing brings a survey of the diagrams created and exhibited by Ricardo Basbaum in recent years, both as autonomous pieces or part of installations and other forms of action. In his own words, Basbaum takes the diagram as a "tool for intervention ... a sort of drawing (or visual poem) that mediates the dynamic flow between words and images--discursive and non-discursive spaces--or literary and plastic spaces, etc." Three essays by the artist are included here, followed by extensive documentation of the GCAC exhibition, and a large selection of his diagrams. The texts were assembled in the shape of a collective-conversation, where topics around diagram, alterity, group practice, temporality and affect are discussed in direct relation to the work of Basbaum.Contributors include: Guy Brett, Cuauhtémoc Medina, Emily Pethick, Cecília Cotrim, Monika Szewczyk, Renata Marquez, Luiz Cláudio da Costa, Santiago Garcia Navarro, Bojana Piskur, Dieter Roelstraete, Francisco Ali-Brouchoud, Brandon LaBelle and Daniela Mattos.

This oral autobiography of the underground experimentalist also serves as a history of the 1980s tape and electronic music scene in the USSince 1980, Jeph Jerman (born 1959)--sound artist, field recordist, percussionist and visual artist--has released over 200 sound works, under his own name, under the moniker Hands To and with countless collaborators, improvising with natural found objects, crude homebuilt devices, tape machines and occasionally traditional instruments. He now makes his home in Cottonwood, Arizona.This book-length interview traces Jerman's life and work, from his earliest sound experiments, free rock and jazz units, and postal collaborations, to his more recent work with decaying matter and landscape. Illustrated with previously unpublished photos, this highly readable conversation also sketches the 1980s American home-taping and electronic music scenes in which Jerman was a key figure, convening a community of anti-luminaries such as G.X. Jupitter-Larsen, Eric Lunde, Mark Schomburg, Tim Barnes, Dave Knott and Dan Burke. Listen also includes a selection of Jerman's visual art.

A poetic, "necropolitical" view of sociality in MexicoMoving across a range of sites and situations, Dead People Whispering to Us is a book of stealth, where the author's listening-writing practice attends to the disappearances and invisibilities shaping much of contemporary life. Author and artist Israel Martínez writes his own book of the dead, chronicling the necropolitical reality in Mexico through a persistent belief in social change realized between friends and strangers. The dead, for Martínez, become guides toward a form of poetic activism.Israel Martínez is an artist and author based in Zapopan, Mexico.

An experimental essayistic engagement with a French philosopher's study of movement in autistic childrenWandering Echoes veers between philosophical thought and poetic experimentation, asking for a reading by way of multiple and meandering lines. Underpinning the book is a profound engagement with Fernand Deligny, whose work with autistic children in the 1960s and '70s posed a more experimental understanding of the diversely abled. Wandering Echoes is a work under the influence of Deligny, amplifying his gestural philosophy through lines of thought whose echoes and vibrations lead into a labyrinthine text of personal experience, soft moments and deep restlessness. Subtle and demanding, the book is ultimately an act of poetic-doing which, for the author, enables emergent forms of solidarity.Luis Guerra is a Chilean visual artist, philosopher, and poet living and working in Barcelona. He has been a fellow resident at the Saastamoinen Foundation (2021) and a fellow grantee by the Kone Foundation (2020) in Helsinki, Finland. As a visual artist, his work revolves around the imaginary line that Western culture has created between art and philosophy.
