Mina Pam Dick (aka Traver Pam Dick, Gregoire Pam Dick et al.) is a writer,
translator, artist and philosopher living in New York City. Her prose poetry has appeared
in BOMB, The Brooklyn Rail, Aufgabe, Everyday Genius,
The Recluse and Fence Magazine, and is forthcoming in Mrs. Maybe;
her
philosophical work has appeared in a collection published by the International
Wittgenstein Symposium. Her translations,
mistranslations and co-translations can be found in Telephone Journal
and Dandelion. Dick’s first book, Delinquent, was published by Futurepoem
Books in 2009. Currently, Dick is working on transgenre books which engage
with Hölderlin, Trakl, Lenz, Büchner and Robert Walser. They do philosophy as
lit, and explore fluid identity, tonal alternation’s music, the poetics of sex
with sibling books. See: http://eoagh.com/?p=843 and http://www.everyday-genius.com/2010/07/hildebrand-pam-dick.html
ABOUT TRANSPOSE:
Transpose – exchange
places; shift contexts; play music in a different key; change forms; pose
difficulties; raise questions; assume positions of the mindbody; mistake
identities.
Once upon a time in the land of translit (prose poetry as philosophy,
poetry as sound performance, textual transience of the wandering I) there
lived Avasilichioaei and Dick. Dick transversed mounts of subjective texts (truth
as first-personal, world an idiocosm) dug deep into linguistic contours,
risking marginals. Germaning up the Trakls, Kafkas, Hölderlins, Wittgensteins,
Kierkegaards (incestuous poetics as making out or off with kindred texts),
Dick became subject to Mina Pam Dick, Traver Pam Dick, Hildebrand Pam Dick and
so on (how the act of writing fictionalizes the author, who moves in and out
of protagonist/narrator). Avasilichioaei tried various positions (mapping
out the page’s architecture, in the porous boundary between page and body,
private and public), positing a translation or two, an invented writer or
two (writing with, alongside, in response to, against the signature of
anothers), landscaping sound and sounding into the pagescape (transcription
in the foliage of veins, the throat’s technology; body sounding out its
sediments, its vocal multiple). One day, Avasilichioaei and Dick, qua Odile
A. and Felix P. D., began writing across the letters of Ingeborg Bachman (language
doing language, trans-sex through text).
