Meaning plunges from abyss to abyss until it threatens to become lost in the bottomless depth of language.

in absentia
Absence emerges - continually and ever different(iating) - as difference &, through a / its mode of negation, affirms the existence of an inter-/intra-relational & at same time also (equally) separate, singular difference
vimeo
Craig Dworkin at Penn Poetry & Poetics on October 9th, 2012 , presenting his book No Medium
!”. . . encountering an apparent absence there is always something interesting to say.” Michael Leong
“Like Wallace Stevens’ snow man, who parses ‘nothing that is not there and the nothing that is,’ Craig Dworkin faces up to this exquisite challenge, following the lead of an old Provençal lyric ‘to make a poetry of pure nothing.’ With a mental agility commensurate with every unlikelihood it encounters, Dworkin is a connoisseur of details even where none would seem to exist. His keen eye (and ear) for the materiality behind non-appearance is a marvel: he is the Barnum of a peculiar new circus called No Medium.” —Jed Rasula

2.2 Choose your own translation (syntactic translation) I
• The following is an experiment that I carried out using a sentence from P.T. Greach and Max Black’s translation of Gottlob Frege because it is the same text Craig Dworkin uses in his DEF, which adopts the Oulipian strategy of replacing each word in a sentence with its dictionary definition, and then replacing each word in the definitions with the definitions of those words and so on and so forth. Dwokin’s experiment is representative of a strong penchant in experimental translation for dictionary play, along with Jackson MacLow’s French sonnets and Tim Atkin’s Word Search #1 which all fell out of the holes in the basket of the above chapter.
Materials
• A short source text
• Wordreference.com
Players
• This can be done alone, or the word lists presented to players as in the first “choose your own translation” variation.
Steps
• Select one word from each list of translations, without changing the order of the word. This can be repeated as many times as is necessary or possible.
Examples
• List of wordreference.com translations for each of the words contained in P.T. Greach and Max Black’s translation Gottlob Frege’s sentence:
Original : On the introduction of a name for something simple, a definition is not possible ; there is nothing for it but to lead the reader or hearer, by means of hints, to understand the words as is intended.
- From Gottlob Frege « On Concept and Object, » trans PT Geach and Max Black, Mind (Vol. 60, No. 2 » 8, April 1951) : 168-180, taking from Craig Dorkin, from DEF, in Paris (ed. Andrew Hodgson).

Resulting translation and retrotranslation into English:
Au bord du lancement, parmi certaines, accusées de quelque chose élémentaire, une définition ne se sent pas envisageable. Voici est rien, à la place du chat pour ce qui est attaquer la lectrice, ou encore, l’auditrice à côté du tonnerre parmi les soupçons, à croire les paroles en tant qu’est prévu.
English translation : On the edge of the launch, among those accused of something elementary, a definition does not feel conceivable. Here is nothing, in the place of the cat for what attacks the reader, or even the listener next to the thunder amidst suspicions, which could be taken as words insofar as foreseen.

Quote
The mine sinks, by steps, like an inverted ziggurat to some forgotten empire in theocratic thrall to the worship of annihilation. Stepped like a Mayan pyramid, climbed downward from the inside, one rung per day, to reach the level at which sacrificial blood leaches up through porous floors, filtered by the limestone sponge of lithic alveoli interceding in divinely breathed, elemental, alchemical exchange, the mine is a temple to negative space. The razing by its tracked pneumatic priests enshrines a geometry of absence.
��Helicography” Craig Dworkin

Quote
At the same time, as I have tried to demonstrate here, Zen for Record makes clear that even the most abstract and cerebral works of conceptual art cannot be separated from those material and technical supports. There is no single medium, to be sure, but media are inescapable. Friedman’s record lays bare the structures that other audio works might seek to conceal, but which they can never elude or avoid. This is an important lesson, because after all the talk of “dematerialization” of the art object in the 1960s, and after the futile challenge made by “idea art” and “information art” to the institutions they opposed, conceptual art has been to often imagined as immaterial (in both senses of the word). Zen for Record proves both positions wrong.
