As soon as I opened Glitchasemics I knew I was in new
territory. The pages are alive with broad bands and striations of
forceful, synthetic color, mitigated by grays and off whites. This isn’t
decorative color, it doesn’t reference nature or express emotion, it
acts as language and has language – asemic writing - embedded in it.
Conversations occur between and among the pages. Relationships form by
way of echoes and repetitions. These set up a rhythm that functions the
way narrative does: it makes you turn the page to see the next
development. The experience of Glitchasemics is intoxicating and sets a
new standard for visual reading.

It is a treat for me whenever I discover something new by
Marco Geovenale, and his recent book, Glitchasemics (Post-Asemic Press)
does not disappoint. MG’s creativity bursts from each page.
Indecipherable markings and color in the mixture. Repetition and
rearrangement of form and pattern. If you expect the unexpected when
reading an asemic piece, this is the book for you. I recommend that you
buy it.
