JACKSON MAC LOW, b. Chicago, 12 September 1922, d. New York, 8 December 2004, was a poet and composer of musical works, sound poetry, and performance pieces and a writer of essays, talks, plays, and radio works (often produced by Westdeutscher Rundfunk Köln). Visual artist and multimedia performer, he worked with other composers, musicians and/or poets, most often with the poet and visual artist, Anne Tardos.

From 1937 to 1954 he wrote and composed many verbal and musical works by “intentional” and/or “quasi- intentional” methods. From 1954 to 1980 “nonintentional” methods figured largely in his production of verbal, musical, visual, and performance works. These methods included systematic chance operations, indeterminacy, deterministic, acrostic, and diastic reading-through text-selection methods, along with translations of music notation into verbal texts and vice versa.His simultaneities and sound poems for speakers, vocalists, instrumentalists, and/or projectionists require performers to make many choices in their realizations, before and especially during performances.
From about 1980 to 1989 many of his works were composed by quasi- intentional methods. These are “writingways” involving both subliminal, liminal, and deliberate choices. The composition of many other works involved nonintentional methods, predominantly diastic ones. Sources of these included the Cantos of Ezra Pound and works by Goethe. In 1987, he began working with computers. From 1987 to 1989 he made a series of poems drawing from works by and about Kurt Schwitters, using chance operations involving “glossaries.”

From 1998 to 2004, he wrote Stein, a series of poems drawing words and phrases from works by Gertrude Stein. Then he used passages from other works by Stein as seeds for computer-automated diastic and other deterministic procedures, and then refined the procedures’ output. He also completed the revision of his extensive series of poems 154 Forties, (begun in 1990). Each poem is written as a 40-line “fuzzy verse form.” These poems include caesural silences, rapid and slowed-down compound words, most of them neologistic, and other prosodic devices, some of which were first introduced in his series Twenties.
