Eric Acosta and friends explore GOOS I through reading and singing, at the Underbelly Reading Series.
I’m excited to announce that my latest book was released last Wednesday at the Underbelly Poetry Reading in Seattle. GOOS I is the first book under my working name G. Ooze. It’s the first in a series I am still realizing.
New review: Vanguards of Holography

More from InferKit.
Have you heard of InferKit? I’ve been using it once in a while, here and there, to create short prose works. Not for anything other than my own morbid AI curiosity. I decided to try and generate a bio note today, which inspired the AI to come up with a (not yet created) book and a brand new, Whitmanesque poem. The prompt is first in bold, and then the generative text.
A New Sound Project: roarbuzz
It’s been a while since I posted any new audio works. This is the first new exploration in sound since May 2021’s Dunn Gardens. roarbuzz uses found sound from a hostel in Banff, along with Paul’s Extreme Sound Stretch, and a bunch of EQing in Ableton. The result is the most ambient work I’ve ever created, and the first in a sequence of audio projects that are connected to a larger performance piece in development. Stream below or visit the roarbuzz Bandcamp page to purchase/download.
