About
Jesse Glass dances on the edge of poetry and sound, sculpting language into auditory landscapes across self-released tapes and one intriguing magazine. His work, spanning from 1977 to 1999, resonates with the liminal spaces between spoken word and experimental audio art. Each cassette, a fractal narrative woven from introspective threads, invites listeners into a world where words are not merely read, but felt as sonic phenomena. Motor Noise Poems February 89, a standout self-released tape, layers Glass's narrative-driven poetics over a bedrock of unconventional sound textures. With VEC Audio, Glass crafted Poems and Play, an interdisciplinary venture that further blurs the line between literary and auditory experiences. Against the Agony of Matter, his literary exploration published through Ahadada Books, encapsulates Glass's drive to explore the depths of matter and meaning. This mag/lit piece stands as a testament to his engagement with the poetic and folkloric, all while maintaining an exploratory spirit. With a mere 72 last.fm listeners, Glass remains an undercurrent in the experimental scene, a hidden gem for those willing to delve into the rich textural landscapes he creates.
