A Sonogrammar Is A Mythic Technology And The Name For The Object It Makes. It Is Both Method Of Listening For Auditory System In A Work And It Is The Figuration Of Findings: Rhythmic Pattern, Correspondence, Dissonance.the Poems In This Collection Conduct A Systematic Sonogrammar On Gertrude Stein's Tender Buttons (1914), Reading This Exquisite And Perplexing Modernist Text As Meaningful First And Foremost At The Level Of Sound. The Collection De-forms And Re-articulates The Sound Of Writing To Learn What Stein Still Teaches About The Interdepending Work Of Intonation, Punctuation And Grammar In The Creation Of Rhythm. Because Rhythm Interlaces A Writer With A Locality - Materially, At The Level Of Wave And Vibration - A Sonogrammar Is Also Testament To The Way Poetry Can Work (as Light And Colour Work) To Construct A Timespace. It Is An Ode To Stein's Capacity To Undiscipline Sentences, Building Syntactic Room Inside Them For Divergence And Differentiation.
