Book excerpt: In the late 1970s, while students at Cal Arts, Tony Oursler and Mike Kelley formed a band called first, polka Dot and the Spots, and finally, The Poetics. This little-known musical aggregation was proceeded perhaps only by The Weirdos (an early LA punk band with members from Cal Arts) as one of the first New Wave Art Rock bands of that period. Inspired by Laurie Anderson's class at Cal Arts, Kelley and Oursler's band was experimenting with ways to integrate visual arts with music. This limited edition package documents the brief life of The Poetics.
