...one wishes that Marling would consider writing a monograph just on Murakami. Marling writes insightfully about the technological changes in actual composition (word processing); the phenomena of ...entertainment conglomerates swallowing up traditional book publishers; the effect of the Internet and e-books on the reading public; the proliferation of demotic means of self-publication in blogs and personal webpages; the postmodernist bias of the New York Times, etc., but it is hard to discern Marling's overall point in this catalog of recent developments.
Because at that period I was aware of Dylan Thomas, and there was this energy and unusual language. ...in terms of when I thought of myself as a writer, I think I seriously began to think of myself ...as a writer at around probably 19. Because I had been married to this person, David. ...some of my early work I think of as an organic discovery. In a mature work by a mature poet or playwright, if they have it to begin with and if they retain it, it's always a new authentic journey. Because a lot of poets have not changed their work in decades.

Journal Article
(after Terrance Hayes) When your last stack of chips gets shipped the other way, when your wallet gapes like the mouth of a two-coated man prone on a splintered park bench what else is there to do ...but stagger out and return to the shadows of an empty womb, then curl up like the last macaroni stuck to a paper plate?
Where We Used to Live in conjunction with the thesis project Light & Death are essayistic and poetic approaches to story telling. The writing in this written portion of the thesis are combinations of ...my methods, influences and the fundamental engineers of what my process looks like from text to my art practices. The essays in this thesis are intertwined with critical ideals around my art practice and personal stories of what, why, and how I make art. Thematically the essays find themselves toiling with the ideas around familial deaths, loss of long time lovers, the past, and the color blue. I also tackle thematics around labor documentary, performance and what it means to tell a story cinematically. In that realm the thesis project Light & Death is a combination of the thematics above that was performed in the MOE Blackbox theater at the communications building at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. The performance will include cinematic visual elements combing the everyday images of what it looks like inside of the domesticated space of my home after having lost my long time partner. Within the live performance I will be reciting poems that will act as the essayistic narrative for the piece. Musicians Andrew Beyke of this same MFA program and my brother Lucas Tracy will provide a live score to combine this piece into a post-cinematic experience. I am focusing on the light in our lives that we must seek out if we are to avoid the darkness and find ourselves out of bed and in the world, we were used to live.
...literary texts are not immediately suitable for machine translation, but methods are improving and even in the present state machine translation helps at speeding up the process. ...cultural ...references are (evidently) not taken into account. his summarizes well what one would expect to be the drawbacks of MT. he lack of awareness of context is probably the cause of most of the mistakes encountered. ...contrary to popular belief, computer engineers and scientists are sometimes also interested in literature. According to my analyses, it is very rare for a translator to be able to render each and every one of these features every time.
While Arturo Bandini might loudly proclaim himself to be an outcast incapable of winning true acceptance in an urban society whose vision of white American culture only intermittently includes ...Italian Americans, Ask the Dust ultimately presents us with a protagonist whose own investment in joining this white society is matched by his disdain for the non-white city residents with whom he is so routinely associated in the eyes of others.
