Please join us October 15 from 3:30-5:00 p.m. in Humanities Centre 3-95 (Salter Reading Room) for a reading and discussion with author Joel Katelnikoff. This event will give attendees a behind the scenes look at Katelnikoff's brilliant work of research creation, poetics, and theoretical speculation, Recombinant Theory.

Recombinant Theory is a new approach to critical writing that applies cut-up techniques to the complete works of ten contemporary poet-theorists: Annharte, Charles Bernstein, Christian Bok, Johanna Drucker, Lyn Hejinian, Steve Mccaffery, Erfn Moure, Sawako Nakayasu, Lisa Robertson, and Fred Wah. These cut-ups are then compiled into essays, each refracting the concepts of the original text while producing original lyrical and theoretical formulations.

Joel Katelnikoff holds a PhD from the ¶®É«µÛ and currently resides in British Columbia. He has presented his work at academic conferences and poetry festivals around the world.
