Sufjan Stevens' 2010 album, The Age of Adz, was inspired, in part, by the art of Royal Robertson. The schizophrenic's art was characterized by apocalyptic assurances (motivated largely by his ex-wife) and "futuristic images". To sonically realize Robertson's sci-fi scrawlings, Stevens incorporates portions of the Futurist musical program.

Video Essay at TriQuarterly
Digital lit mags make intermedial art easier to publish. With luck, this new trend will be a pleasant BLAST! from the past.
Intentions
I will publish blog entries for my independent study in intermedia here. Hope to get one cranked out by the end of the week. Thinking about the Futurist sounds in Sufjan's Age of Adz or interactivity in the Wilderness Downtown music video. I could pick some hypertextual poetry, but that would be too easy.
