Biographical Notes

Poet LOSS PEQUEÑO GLAZIER (http://epc.buffalo.edu/authors/glazier/) is the author of Anatman, Pumpkin Seed, Algorithm (Salt Publishing, 2003) and the award-winning Digital Poetics (University of Alabama Press, 2002), Small Press: An Annotated Guide, and the collections Leaving Loss Glazier, The Parts, and other books, as well as numerous published poems, essays, kinetic works, and online projects including sound files, hypertexts, and CD-ROM publications. Recent works include "Viz Études," a series of performances that present a reading and projection of a number of visual, kinetic, text, and JavaScript-based compositions for electronic space, works which mine the more pliant possibilities of e-poetry and explore the material dimensions of writing in electronic space through the use of elements such as moving text, imbedded sound files, and layered text as properties of writing. An installation of "Viz Études" for magnetic media was included in the "The Next Word" Exhibit at the Neuberger Museum at SUNY Purchase, Fall, 1998. Individual interations of "Viz Itudes" have recently been performed in San Francisco, New York, Washington DC, Buffalo, Atlanta, London, Salamanca (Spain), Mexico City, and Bergen (Norway).

Dr. Glazier is Director of the Electronic Poetry Center (http://epc.buffalo.edu/), State University of New York at Buffalo, an extensive resource for innovative and digital poetry. The Electronic Poetry Center (EPC) has been listed in the PMLA, twice selected as the Chronicle of Higher Education's Internet site for the day, hailed in Publisher's Weekly as the "mother of all poetry webs," reviewed in Postmodern Culture 8, no. 1 (1997), and called "the first, and in many ways still the best, serious poetry site" in American Book Review 19, no. 3 (March-April 1998). As Director of the EPC, Glazier has worked to develop Web content, making substantial poetry resources available online, and to engage the emerging multimedia environment of the Internet.
