Dada is a virgin microbe that penetrates with the insistence of air into all the spaces that reason has not been able to fill with words or conventions.

Here's some original artwork from the pages of Karawane.
We recommend watching the slideshow slightly fast, which you can do by dragging the arrow up a bit on the slider bar. It's just trippier and more fun that way!
Roll the mouse over an image to get the caption and credits.
Enjoy!
Television
We like public access television an awful lot. Occasionally something interesting comes up on digital cable channels like Ovation, among others.
Books
Too many to mention. We also highly recommend literary magazines. Check out our MySpace friends to find some cool litmags (and bookstores too!)
Heroes
We've added a few of them to our MySpace friends. You'll know them when you see them.
Karawane Magazine features experimental performance writing, including plays, poetry/spoken word, performance art texts, musical scores, manifestos, oratory, etc.
Karawane Magazine publishes experimental performance texts of all kinds - short plays, performance (art) pieces, spoken word poetry (if it's experimental and not like everyone else's), musical scores, manifestos, etc.

Karawane: Or, the Temporary
Death of the Bruitist is a journal of experimental performance texts featuring poetry, plays, manifestos, etc. Karawane, like many little magazines, is a labor of love on the part of its editor, with occasional help from those I browbeat into it. Thus, it is published erratically, but with passion. The next issue will hopefully be out by April or May, 2008. We strive for one issue each calendar year, as time and life permits. (Not to be confused with Time/Life, who has many more resources and publishes much more consistently than Karawane.)
Karawane is named after a sound poem by Dada poet Hugo Ball, which we now have playing on our MySpace. The name was chosen to signal to people that we were spoken word more like Cabaret Voltaire than a poetry slam. We grew out of an experimental, interactive, community-spirited open mic in the Minneapolis area in the late 1990s.
Our Blog is a featured writers’ showcase including pieces from past and current issues. This will also be the place where we will do our calls for manuscripts and announce events and shows. So be sure to add us to your friends list and subscribe to the blog.
Be sure to check the Karawane website for guidelines on how to submit work, what type of work we look for, etc. All submissions will be considered for the website, the print journal, and the MySpace Featured Artists Blog.
And check out our storefront of grooviness wherein you can purchase most excellent t-shirts, mousepads, bookbags, and oh so much more!! Tell the world you are a Bruitist!
PS . . .I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 I was skeptical, but I'm actually really happy with it!
Who I'd like to meet:
Playwrights, performance artists, spoken word performers, performance poets, orators, dadaists, surrealists, situationists, conceptualists, dancers, musicians, visual artists, manifesto writers, theatre types, and anyone with a jones for experimental performance and writing.
