Lit-Cast

A series of BP Nichol poems from 1972-1979 remastered from audio cassette for the first time. The first piece, Generations Generated is a classic example of his “sound poetry” sans words, the next, Pome Poem, is a chant that begs the question of how much content in poetry is conveyed in words and how much in delivery. Finally, Art in Upheaval, combines the elements of sound poetry and essay. Billed by BP as an essay, Lit-Cast makes it blue.
