This website is a testament to
'Lectric Collective's nationwide journey,
which brought various literary projects to
artistically-driven communities
across the U.S. in July and August of 2011.
The collective encouraged folks to
actively engage with the written word while
questioning the
existence of and grounds for the contemporary American literary
landscape, including
readings,
interviews, and
experiments.
The content from the trip seemed to be fastened together
by a number of uncanny motifs and it became clear that a chronological documentary would not suffice.
Instead, this site is designed to not only broadcast materials from
the poets' pilgrimage, but to point to a
preternatural
network by recontextualizing these motifs from
various angles. As the motifs transpire, the site
evolves.

Not that entry matters. You may enter
anywhere, click anywhere, and end up someplace
entirely unexpected. Your trajectory is unique, enjoy it.
