one of my recent favorite magazines is Dazed & Confused from the UK. They’ve been doing some nice literary and film pieces, ensconced in a fashion magazine. I recently wrote about some of their literary features at Vol1Brooklyn and here’s a piece they did about Frank Hinton and Internet Poetry.

[JOSH SPILKER VIDEO INTERVIEW RESPONSE]
*
Josh Spilker created I AM ALT LIT toward the beginning of 2012
he was anonymous for several months , then decided to ‘come out’
now a handful of ppl write for I AM ALT LIT (including myself) but you never can tell who’s writing what!!!
Stephen Michael McDowell aka Buttercup McGillicuddy , from my understanding , was the first ‘guest’ reviewer (& this was before Josh ‘revealed’ his ‘identity’)
*
in his interview response Josh begins by pulling up to his favorite taco truck to buy a taco
Josh threads this taco experience throughout the entirety of the video response
he has also typed the txt of my questions into the video
I enjoy his ‘unique’ approach to this video response
‘thankks’ Josh
*
on I AM ALT LIT & the I AM ALT LIT twitter Josh seems to meticulously follow his spelling & linguistic idiosyncrasies
sometimes on this video he doesn’t verbally answer the questions but instead answers them w txt over scenes of himself walking or banging a knife or a hammer to a book etc etc
he speaks abt his new book:
specifically one guy who feels that God is telling him to start a taco truck
*
he brings a clip in of a wild animal attack to answer my question abt what will happen to alt lit in 10 years , w this txt over it:
alt lit will be eaten alive
ppl will ‘rebel’ against it
as we have ‘rebelled’ against whatev we’re ‘rebelling’ against.
*
he eats his taco to finish the video
