Book Description
Poetry. "At a controlled distance from a papery world Ray DiPalma constructs dense material thought. Words push against thought patterns and that shape they turn to you. It's a universe of marvelous tough slopes and gestures with abetted passions"-Alan Davies.

Book Description
Like any profound technological breakthrough, the advent of sound recording ushered in a period of explosive and imaginative experimentation, growth and competition. Between the commercial debut of Edison's "talking machine" in 1889 and the first commercial radio broadcast three decades later, the recording industry was uncharted territory in terms of both technology and content. This history of the earliest years of sound recording--the time between the phonograph's appearance and the licensing of commercial radio--examines a newly created technology and industry in search of itself. It follows the story from the earliest efforts to capture sound, to the fight among wire, cylinder and disk recordings for primacy in the market, to the growth and development of musical genres, record companies and business practices that remain current today. The work chronicles the people, events and developments that turned a novel, expensive idea into a highly marketable commodity. Two appendices provide extensive lists of popular genre and ethnic recordings made between 1889 and 1919. A bibliography and index accompany the text.

Book Description
Poetry. 63 sonnet-sized letters, confined to various forms of 14 lines each, but certainly not limited by the confines of any traditional notion of the sonnet. Ranging in size from terse verses with three-word lines to run-on sentences whose long lines spill over the confines of the margins, these poems track my news, all the words left behind/in the silence of the pictures/where I would have music instead (from 1) and manage, delightufully, to earnestly engage the legacy of frustrated initiative complicated by the inclination/to gather and reshape what at first seemed only a series of mere formalities/into expressions of low key exasperation and contentious irony (from 25). Di Palma creates an enticing, intelligent interior world, and leaves us in the unproven place on the road or at the table/on the other side of the wall painted with a dragon (from 63)-in other words, he leaves us still moving, not to a point but to a direction/conversant with its circumstance (from 24).

Book Description
Poetry. In THE ART OF PRACTICE, the poem is viewed as primary, not 'prior to or about experience, ' but itself experience... The editors make clear that neither expression, description, nor voice is the point of this poetry: 'it is the embodiment of the mind discovering' -- Jackson Mac Low
