The Benefits of Unassociation

April 4, 2005

Initial Report Regarding the Day of Unassociation

More than 200 writers, readers and producers of independent literature gathered in the space of unassociation during the day to read, listen, talk, bounce on the inflatable bouncy, drink and eat yummy toasties.

Construction of the Space of Unassociation Complete

A team of crack novelists, poets and composers of short, pithy anecdotes operated electric screw drivers and made many trips of the dollar store for supplies in the successful construction of the Space of the Unassociation.

Unassociated Writing Conference & Dance Party at Western Front April 2nd -- Line-up Announced

Vancouver BC – A day-long gathering of unaffiliated writers and independent presses (that will end as all good stories should end — in a dance party) will take place in the Lux Ballroom at Western Front (303 East 8th Avenue). Doors open at 11 am, events until 5 pm. Evening festivities begin at 9 pm and feature a talk by Mathias Bouw of Amsterdam’s One Architecture and live music from the Vancouver-based quartet P:ano and the Olympia, WA, rock band The Strangers. $8 (CAN) all day / $6 (CAN) evening

Newsletter For Literature

In early March, Clear Cut Press, with support from the Netherlands Architecture Fund, flew Clear Cut author Matthijs Bouw from Amsterdam to North Pacific America to prepare for a four-city lecture tour. After an intense weekend of research with Seattle-based architect Jerry Garcia (designer of the Clear Cut book kiosk), Matthijs joined Matthew and I for a trip to Canada. Our purpose was to visit the Lux Ballroom at Vancouver’s Western Front artist collective, where Matthijs will lecture as part of the Unassociated Writers Conference (see below).
