Sound recordings, surveillance cameras, desert geoglyphs, drone operators, refugee interviews, animal imprints, and audio signals manifest moments of inspired wonder, systems of power, slippages, debris. In \"the great era of seeing\" when the boundary between tracking agent and monitored subject is worn thin by politics and commerce, \u003cem\u003eEight Track\u003c\/em\u003e assembles a set of discordant melodies, polyphonic voices, transcriptions, theatres, and images in a struggle to hold on to agency and awe. Stirring from languages of oppression to languages of resistance, \u003cem\u003eEight Track\u003c\/em\u003e echolocates the nameless, the noisy, the scattered, and the voiceless. This is ultimately a book of relations--of each of us to each other, to other life forms, to environments, to cultures, to the obsolete and the absolute, to the animal vitality we share.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOana Avasilichioaei interweaves poetry, translation, photography, sound, and performance to explore an expanded idea of language (whether textual, visual, aural, etc.) as reverberatory and evolutionary, polylingual and polyphonic poetics, historical structures, borders and movement. Her six poetry collections include \u003cem\u003eWe, Beasts\u003c\/em\u003e (Wolsak \u0026amp; Wynn, 2012, A.M. Klein Prize for Poetry) and \u003cem\u003eLimbinal\u003c\/em\u003e (Talonbooks, 2015). Recent sound-performance works include \u003cem\u003eEIGHT OVER TWO\u003c\/em\u003e (2019, Semi Silent Award) and \u003cem\u003eOPERATOR\u003c\/em\u003e (2018), and she is currently writing a libretto for a one-act opera (FAWN, Toronto). She has also translated eight books of poetry and prose from French and Romanian, including Bertrand Laverdure's \u003cem\u003eReadopolis\u003c\/em\u003e (Book*hug, 2017, Governor General Literary Award). Based in Montréal, Avasilichioaei frequently crosses borders to perform her work in Canada, the United States, and Europe, and she was the 2018 Audain Visual Artist in Residence at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver.
