These are courtesy from friend and colleague, Dana—who pointed them out. Brian Dettmer carves into books revealing the artwork inside, creating complex layered three-dimensional sculptures. Absolutely amazing!
Brian Dettmer (born 1974) is an American contemporary artist. He is noted for his alteration of preexisting media—such as old books, maps, record albums, and cassette tapes—to create new, transformed works of visual fine art.

Thanks to Jane Jortiz-Nakagawa and everyone on board—the final version of Ekleksographia is now onliine. Click here for the exciting first issue!
Ekleksographia is an independent international poetry magazine edited, produced and published by Jesse Glass, Daniel Sendecki and a revolving panel of editors. The publication revolves completely around their efforts and therefore maintains a somewhat irregular publication schedule, averaging about 2 issues a year. Ekleksographia employs a ‘revolving editor’ system—the magazine retains a panel of editors, each of which edits one issue every so often.
Ekleksographia is published as an Ahadada Books cooperative publication. Editors and contributors will therefore be asked actively to contribute both their talents and their time to the publication.
As a cooperative Ahadada Books asks for help in selling, promoting, publishing, and distributing the work. If that means helping Ahadada Books with library sales, or building websites, or even printing manuscripts using appropriate technology and resources open to the author(s), then we are happy to encourage that process, to publicize and distribute the effort.
Ekleksographia is an exercise in asymmetrical publishing, and is a shoe (or even two!) thrown at the spotlit shrug and yawn. Please contact Jesse Glass and/or Daniel Sendecki for queries or further information. Or check out more links here.
Jesse tells me that Amy King, Vivian Shipley, and T. A. Noonan are all in line for the curatorship of a future Ekleksos. Exciting times are upon us—indeed!
The current economic situation reflects a new world order! It follows that, a number of so-called ‘Blue Chip’ companies have had to modify their logos to refect the new reality. Indeed, seeing is believing!
Thanks to my co-worker, Shannon, for forward this to me. Not sure who to credit for these—if you know the designer, please let me know!
