BIO
Lewis LaCook makes things. He is a programmer/poet. He likes unstable objects. He doesn't eat enough. Send him all your money.
Foundation Actionscript
I make an input movie clip
and an output movie clip.
I wake up. They are draggable.
They could go anywhere. I am
on the screen. My head hurts and
I'm reading what Bruce Andrews
has discovered that he doesn't know
about "cyberpoetry," as defined
by three people. It's all constrained!
She sleeps in a hull all night, licking
dreams from the backs of her hands.
I trace these bitmaps I found
in a Google image search on the word
"covered." I adjust the vectors. I script
the clip to load these backgrounds
randomly. My headache is different
moment to moment; she sleeps in a husk
while harvest waits beneath a skin
of cold crystals. I mimic a Windows
interface. I make coffee. I
look out on a weather thoughtlessly
turning; spilled milk shadows, slow
water licking the banks between ice
and flaw. My head brims with salt.
She wakes up with a bloom.

Where Do You Want To Go Today?
Are you frustrated by pluralism? Does contemplating
viewpoints other than your own wear you out? Tired of
strange accents, weird religions and political ideas
that just don't jibe with yours? Well, your worries
are over, because now there's Oil War!
Just plug Oil War into any standard telephone jack
and get whisked away by the soothing screams of
(insert current evil)'s women and children expiring
like so many out-of-date snacks in the fires of
long-range retribution! In minutes Oil War will
instantly dissolve unsightly anti-American sentiment,
leaving your world capitalist, passive, white and
Christian! And Oil War won't stain Judeo-Christian
skin!
Men! Oil War is formulated with a special proprietary
blend of synthetic herbals and shrinking 401K's
guarenteed to turn your kitten into a raging tigress
when the lights go out! Oil War is 100% American-made,
with no migrant worker ingredients, no Federal Labor
Law and no Minimum Wage! Just apply Oil War to
uncooperative, sovereign regions, and in no time at
all Oil War will turn stubborn radical fundamentalists
into docile over-weight myopic consumers!
Ladies! Oil War is non-toxic, which means you'll
never have to remember the tactics your country used
during the Cold War Soviet occupation of Afghanistan,
the Civil Rights movement, Amadou Diallo, and May 4th
at Kent State! Oil War's patented ingredients were
formulated by high level government scientists. One
dose of Oil War and you'll agree, it really IS The
Final Solution! Order Today!

White Dirt
A sliver of window: cold nouns (poor nouns!)
licking eyes until white and soiled.
I bubble over unexpectantly.
A silver of pillage: the very core
of gesture ruts with morning
depression; concave like logic, I
bundle up expressively. My country
colonizing. See those motion-sick
colors bloodying dirty eyes? My
country in winter turns to murder.
I turn to computer, soft and warm.
Handfuls of pelt-flesh smother
my face in voice recognition. I
think over and under it. Lovely people:
cold nuns (poor nouns!) in space.
