Instrument (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781734456622)

Instrument is an experiment in multimodal poetics--inhabiting a synergistic blend of poetry, music, and visual art: the artist's three forms of "voice". Born in Vietnam and leaving the country at the age of two for Northern California, Strom's life and work speaks to fragmentation--of/within selves, histories, cultures, groups of people, and places--yet within this configuring lies her art's fluid mastery. Combining color photography, personal biography and gripping, restless poetry, Instrument represents a unique melding of literature and art. The poems are augmented by an album, Traveler's Ode, of ambient and folk-tinged songs featuring ethereal assemblages of sung-poetry, vocal layering, spare guitar, piano, and field recordings. Traveler's Ode is a collaborative release between Fonograf Ed. and Antiquated Future.
