Publisher Marketing: Big Gorgeous Jazz Machine is a collection of experimental graphic works and comics poetry. It includes more traditionally-minded comics (with a lyrical bent) with abstract and conceptual works, including text-based comics and comics inspired by modernist abstractions. Taken together, the work finds kinship with contemporary avant-cartoonists like Warren Craghead, Aidan Koch, and Simon Moreton, while striking out toward something altogether new. Parts of this collection have appeared in Devil’s Lake, TYPO Magazine, The Offing, PANK Magazine, Entropy Magazine, Big Other, Horse Less Review, Heavy Feather Review, among others.
