POET MECHANIC

---

An ongoing project exploring the fluid and potent poetry of the mechanical. A prosthetic totem grown on the vinyl disk, the Poet Mechanic repurposes the vinyl player into a living, ritualistic sound sculpture. Within an ever-growing series of transformations, a culturally-rooted medium becomes a primitive mechanical instrument that addresses relations between the human and non-human, the mechanical and the poetic. The Poet Mechanic is.
