Rolling Windows - Paperback

by Chris Campanioni (Author)

In revolving sequences that entangle prose and verse, art, correspondence, and annotation, Chris Campanioni's "Rolling Windows" streams encounters of surveillance, digital lust, and epistolary affect amidst fragile media infrastructures, ecological precarity, and the algorithmic composition of the face. Following the speaker on the discontinuous trail of exile and the recombinant zones of encoded networks, the narrative's insistence on interval and diversion-- source, sample, overdub-- is as much a proposal for a migratory ecopoetics as it is a methodology for persons on the move.
