* <<FBD.0790>> Radical Artifice – a 20-year echo

I borrowed Marjorie Perloff's
[[http://marjorieperloff.com/books/unoriginal-genius/][Unoriginal
Genius: Poetry By Other Means In The New Century]] from the library
this morning – the subject matter is interesting to me: the primacy
of media re-use, adaptation, alteration, etc., in contemporary art
(the book is about poetry specifically, but it's relevant across
fields) – but at the very beginning of the preface, she mentions in
passing a previous book,
[[http://marjorieperloff.com/books/radical-artifice/][Radical
Artifice: Writing Poetry In The Age Of Media]], which was published
in 1994, which immediately seemed more interesting to me because I'm
always interested in anachronistic texts dealing with then-new media.

Luckily, she has a few sample chapters available on her web-site.
The first few paragraphs of the very first chapter demanded to be
annotated:
