Adam

About me:

Adam W. Hart is a 36-year-old poet, writer, musician and filmmaker living in Chicago. (Been here since 1997.) Originally from Ohio, I like to work on a multitude of projects - and am always looking for the next one. I record under the name Laguz (la-gooze), which is a Celtic name taken from the set of Runes (used in fortune-telling). The word means a lot of things - water of Life, the strength that runs through Mother Earth, rebirth/renewal, etc., etc. And yes, it does all sound New Age - but I am a water sign according to the Chinese zodiac, and it just seemed to fit. Also, as a Libra, there seemed to be some balance to it. Sounds cool, I guess, which is enough for me. Musically, I work with deep house/dub music (original), with some world music influences. I've been told there are similarities to Tosca and St. Germaine - but I try to do my own thing. I'll post some music from my forthcoming album - still stuck in the 'final phase' - but hopefully it will soon be released. Working on my poetry and fiction (short form and novel length). I've been enjoying reading in public a lot more over the past year, thanks in no small part to my partner (a poet as well). I tend to gravitate toward the more literary forms, but have mixed it up with performance-style - though I'm hardly a performer on stage. I prefer to let my work speak for itself. Also, working on my filmmaking, as I would love to just sit down, storyboard a film all at once (a la Hitchcock), and then bang the sucker out using a nice HD camera. Barring gold coins raining down from the heavens, this is still in the 'upcoming' phase. **NEW** Publisher/editor of Apparatus Magazine, a monthly online literary magazine publishing the best in poetry and short fiction.
