When Zuggy and Kathy said they were professionals, they weren’t bluffing! What new dangers await our heroes when they encounter miscalibrated containment lasers?

We seek to utilize the force of our creative ability to fashion a world of our own or thereby change that which is given.

If two ghost investigators showed up at your house telling you your life was in danger, would you be worried or confident? It all depends on whether or not you have a containment field generator!

NFTs are the next stage in cultural phenomena the Caesura founding editors have been following for more than a decade.

An excerpt from Losarc Raal’s quasi-novella No Material, forthcoming from Black Sun Lit in 2023

Zuggy and Kathy are on the case as the yuletide plot thickens. Let’s hope they’re better at investigating ghosts than they are at spelling!

How did Amacher ultimately feel about being identified as a heroic “sound artist” instead of a hardworking composer who underwent a heroic rescue mission into the deepest undercurrents of music history?

The story you all know is nothing like you remember. With Jacob and Marley fried, it’s up to you-know-who to investigate!

Sometimes, when the origin of ideas of the sublime and the beautiful / are struck by lightning, I root into the hail of stones / at the precise center of the world / and sink into that dust.

…the paintings’ true value resides in mediation as a process of transformation: in their voracity, boldness, and tact in transforming the original film stills.

To simply be a part of the changing afternoon light  The old man I see / in my visions is composed of all the days / in between  Your sense/awareness of who you are cannot be confined within / language  You go up to Medicine Bow / and open the sky and step through

It is full of work convinced that the world as we know it is doddering towards its end, but gives little consideration to the possibility that it is this old New Museum and old new media art, not the world around it, that has run its course.

Spud Byro joins Caesura, bringing the iconic Zuggy and Kathy along for a funky take on the classic Christmas tale! What happens when the futuristic space adventures of contemporary comics collide with the moralistic traditions of the 19th-century novella? We’re excited to find out!

NFTs reveal that relational aesthetics and post-internet art have always been the same phenomenon, differing merely in surface technique and taste.

Jonathan Galassi and Robyn Creswell discuss editing the FSG Poetry Anthology with Austin Carder and Aaron Fagan.

Art is the vanguard of capital.

The NFT phenomenon is a social, not technological, phenomenon emerging from the new money of the 21st century — the tech sector — working out its own culture and aesthetic tastes as an alternative to the self-critical or self-defeating aesthetic culture that has been dominant since the emergence of liberal society in the 19th century.

Better a handful / of calm than / two of clutching / at the wind….

Pierre Joris remembers poet Jack Hirschman (1933-2021).
