Looking at Writing without Looking

Karri Kokko Explains His "Writing Without Looking" from Geof Huth on Vimeo.
During a discussion over Skype from Helsinki, Finland, visual and other poet Karri Kokko explains his booklet "Writing without Looking," as he shows pages from the book to Geof Huth, who videotapes and comments from Schenectady, New York, on 20 December 2010 (21 December in Helsinki).

My friend Karri Kokko and I spoke tonight via Skype, and one of the topics we discussed was his "Writing without Looking" booklet, which is part of a larger project where Karri writes asemically without watching what he writes. During our discussion, but not this video, I wrote a couple of pieces in this manner myself, trying to learn what this kind of writing feels like. It is remarkably disconcerting.

This video contains no great discourse on this form of writing. It is simply the chatting of two friends, with Karri's distant voice a bit too quiet and my voice definitely too loud.
