Centro Tool ugo carrega, via borgonuovo 20, 20121 milano, italy. the concrete poetry center of italy. exhibitions, publications, workshops etc etc. regular series of postcards bearing information and examples of work plus exhibition catalogues etc. get on their list.
* Children of Atlantis (1) R 1 invocation distribution group, po box 2290, cape town. a litho mag printed with blue ink. the new era/ visions/ mantras/ time streams & ufos/ dowden/ yoga/ tibet/ all swirling into a unified whole. de wet is the mind behind it all.
* Contracultura (4) sub $5. 'foro de alternativas' miguel grinberg, c c central 1332, capital, argentina. the alternative press, Spanish text, & a surprising lack of graphics.
Footing by jochen gerz. approches, 11 rue cognac-jay, paris 7. the book from which the cover of this issue of second aeon is taken. it might be a novel, it might be a long poem - it matters little. image, visual, letterwise, photomontage, see through pages, english, french & german text all swirling into each other. its unique & should see a wider readership.
* Gate Avis 1 kr. the work commune, futurum forlag, hjelms gate 3, oslo 3, norway. norwegian text underground paper. print a little dirty but the usual u/g graphics & screams are there.
Holland/English Hapt free. po box 4098, amsterdam. the european underground in english & dutch. a small issue combining with the now defunct english hapt.
Humandesign (6) adriano foschi. LEM editrice, 20144 milano (1), viale coni zugna 58. italy. italian text but that doesnt matter. experimental works in the design field - and that includes concrete poetry, sculpture, collage, furniture, buildings etc etc. well printed and good to view.
* Ikon (vol 2 no 2) 17p. po box 9219, eros, windhoek, s.w.a. the new christianity "the church the image of the new society". africa's equiv of the roadrunner but by no means as hard hitting.
Kyberno signalist texts by miroljub todorvic. signal, dobrinjska 3, 11000 beograd, yugoslavia. dual text french & serbocroatian. poems mainly traditional format but with a large visual set towards the end of the book. very well produced.
* Oehimsa (8) 60 rue de la poudriere, 1000 bruxelles, legie. underground/ freedom - french text.
* Parapluie (3) 3fr. 105 bvd nalesherbes, paris 8. a full blown u/g paper, one of the first i'd seen from france. cartoons/ photos/ graphics/ french text.
Le Paratopiche a visual book dealing with bebop Charlie parker kafka etc by renato ranaldi. italian text (where there is text) very strange indeed. L.1000. firpnze, via celle caldaie, 15.
Qui (8) 6fr. g. irujo. 265 rue saint-denis, paris 2. a small french text poetry mag of verse by younger unknown poets ... the few we roughly translated werent up to much.
Signal (1) miroljub todorovic. dobrinjska 3, 11000 beograd, yugoslavia. a very fine new addition to the international concrete scene. Yugoslavia calls it signalism rather than concrete & points out the differences as regards machine technique (esp computers) etc. dual text including english so it all comes clear. the magazine is split into 2 main sections, one has home grown yuogoslav signalists & the other a pretty good selection from the international concretists including devree/ hausmann/ decampos/ padin/ clavin/ nichol/ valoch/ bory/ moineau/ gerz/ carrega/ etc etc. an excellent selection altogether. if you can get hold of a copy of signal its well worth it.
Signalist Poster Poem (4) alphabet by miroljub todorovic. from the same address a poster size example of signalism at work - using computer paper tape here.
*Spruit (0) 10fr. ercole, 32 grote hondstrt, 2000 antwerpen. underground comix in colour.
Subvers (2) 2.50. dennekoplaan 11, ilmuiden, holland. porno graphic poetry issue by hans clavin. loose leaf and not a nude in sight. text found poems from blue film boxes, books, mags & the like. english text and not really very exciting at all. subvers 1 was a much better issue.
Subvers (3+4) f1.10. hans clavin, dennekoplaan 11, ymuiden, holland. poster poem issue. giant envelop containing 10 well printed large posters. experimental texts in the main. well worth having. wabl/ lichtenaur/ perfettitodorovic/ valoch/ targowski/ clavin/ bertini/ bory/ etc. esp. fine is targowski's music score and clavins "legend of collected poets". subvers leads holland into the new poetry.
xprmntl ptry by g.j. de rook. exp/press postbus 475, nijmegen, holland. holland seems to be awakening to concrete these days - de rook is a far simpler exponent that his countryman hans clavin as this very well produced book proves. not that this is a bad thing. easy on the eye & most of what going on comes clear at first glance. word games involving the forming of one word from the components of another. also visual stuff involving photos etc. neat.
Y Van by jose de jesus martinez. a play - spanish text. participacion poesia, aportado postal 9901, panama 4, panama.
Your Friendly Fascist (3) john edwards. po box A 487, sydney south post office, 2000 nsw. a bad mimeo with no control over print, layout or contents.
