Item — Box 311: [Barcode: 31858072490760]
Identifier: CC-62407-47546
Scope and Contents
Matthew Abess, a second year undergraduate student at the University of Pennsylvania, poet and scholar, spent the summer of 2006 researching the work of the British poet, Bob Cobbing in the Sackner Archive. In honor of the Sackner's 50th wedding anniversary, Matthew conceived of a poetic interpretation by mining the letters R-U-T-H and M-A-R-V-I-N in Cobbing's bibliographic entries in their original positions on the page and reprocessing the letters on 50 pages on a photocopier so that the letters on the final page are completely obscured and abstract. Metaphorically, the letters take on a new beautiful life and interpretation. Also included are six pages of working notes. The poet's explantion of his process is as follows: Please see below my brief explanation of the piece. It is rather inarticulate, so please feel free to edit as you see fit! Respectfully, Matthew "Symphonic Concrete Cine-Text" Curated by: Ruth & Marvin Sackner Edited by: Matthew Abess, 24.06.2006....
