Generative Grammar with Ivanna Baranova @Poetic Research Bureau
Filipinotown
In this three-session workshop at Poetic Research Bureau, we’ll explore various experimental grammatical applications in poetry, including abstract meter, parataxis, syntactical turning, punctuation gleams, linguistic refraction, and more. Together, we’ll consider how these modalities can serve as tools for generating new poetic synergies. Through engagement with experimental texts, prompts, and group discussion, participants will develop collaborative analysis and functional writing, expanding their grammatical attunement to initiate both practical and subliminal approaches to creating poems. Potential readings include works by Daniel Borzutzky, Julian Talamantez Brolaski, Larry Eigner, Tilghman Goldsborough, Lyn Hejinian, Ikkyū, Benjamin Krusling, Aaron Kunin, Friederike Mayröcker, Hoa Nguyen, and more. Ivanna Baranova is a poet and artist from the Pacific Northwest, currently living in Los Angeles and sometimes New York City. Recent books include Threshold (Inpatient Press, 2024) and Continuum (Metatron Press, 2023).

SARAH HENNIES - 'MOTOR TAPES' (West Coast Premiere)
Historic Filipinotown
Taking its name from neuroscientist Rodolfo Llinás’s characterization of the human brain as containing innumerable “tape loops” that run continuously within the mind, Motor Tapes is composed of densely overlapping patterns of sound, with musicians representing synapses that both fire independently and work together to achieve complex activities. Llinás’s description of this phenomena is strikingly musical: “The activity in the basal ganglia is running all the time, playing motor patterns and snippets of motor patterns amongst and between themselves […] they seem to act as a continuous, random, motor pattern noise generator.” “I am interested in the motor tapes theory,” Hennies has said, “because it suggests that alongside lived experience there is a mysterious biological basis for our inclinations, talents and identities.”
