Where does the body go when we write to one another thru digital
channels? How and what do we feel when information is realized through
taps, clicks, and pressures? What happens to meaning within a digital
economy when information is considered to be bodiless? Concerned with
these questions, Surfaces is at turns playful and unsettling as
it explores the processes, interactions, and erasures that occur on
and
below the surface of writing with machinery.
"An uncanny reminder of what language could be, if only we let
it."--Derek Beaulieu
"In Canada [...] there are poets to stun like Eric Schmaltz "--Ian
