Music and Suicide

Flower on, happy paperwhite When you bloom you're gorgeous when you wilt --"Drugs" Jeff Clark's first collection, The Little Door Slides Back, was hailed as an unclassifiable classic in underground American writing: "Remarkable for its liveliness and intelligence" (Chicago Review), "Amazing and ambitious" (Rain Taxi), "a 120-page spell" (American Letters & Commentary), "A happy sadomasochism, a luxuriance of prurience" (Boston Review), "Devoted to the idea of possibility in the poet who operates as free agent, looking to the weather not for the springs of dailiness but for some message from the aether" (Arras), "[Clark's work] creates . . . our own precursors, precursors who behave differently than our supposed avant-garde" (Rhizome). In Music and Suicide Clark is no longer underground. He moves away from the sinisterism and mask-ridden black humor of his debut, toward new realms of clarity, dissent, and sex. Neither a traditionalist nor an experimentalist-if being one means not being the other-Clark once again is engaged in radically beautiful poem-making, but, as Guy Kyser states, "Something affected him down in the desert."

The Little Door Slides Back

Winner of the 1997 National Poetry Series. As this past year's judge for the National Poetry Series, Ray DiPalma, wrote, "the poems collected here represent far more than a finely articulated gathering of poems. The wide-ranging and imaginatively animated expressions of self-revelation at work in these texts establish an original and confident presence, that takes it step by step, in part, from the visionary writing of such poets as Trakl, Desnos, and Michaux. This is a book that asks some valuable new questions -- the very nature of whose answers offers the perplexing consolations that bring us to the poem in the first place. A rare achievement".

Vision and Displays for Military and Security Applications

Realistic and immersive simulations of land, sea, and sky are requisite to the military use of visual simulation for mission planning. Until recently, the simulation of natural environments has been limited first of all by the pixel resolution of visual displays. Visual simulation of those natural environments has also been limited by the scarcity of detailed and accurate physical descriptions of them. Our aim has been to change all that. To this end, many of us have labored in adjacent fields of psych- ogy, engineering, human factors, and computer science. Our efforts in these areas were occasioned by a single question: how distantly can fast-jet pilots discern the aspect angle of an opposi...
