Timeline

1941

Bob Grumman (February 2, 1941 – April 2, 2015) was an American mathematical poet and critic of what he called "otherstream" poetry.

1960

He served in the U.S. Air Force as a Medic during the Vietnam War from 1960 to 1964, and was a member of the USAF Tennis Team.

1966

Grumman's first book, Poemns, was published in 1966.

He went on to publish several books of visual poetry before moving on to mathematical poetry.

Grumman describes mathematical poetry as "poetry that does mathematics, rather than merely discusses mathematics (or uses mathematical algorithms to choose its content, as in the Oulipo movement)".

Grumman's own "mathemaku" are influenced by the haiku form.

Many of them "investigate the results of the long division of such quantities as the actual color blue by such quantities as the dictionary definition of 'blue'" but a few employ other mathematical operations.

In his essays Grumman seeks to foster and promote avant-garde and especially minimalist practices in poetry.

His essay "MNMLST poetry: Unacclaimed but flourishing" explored the subtleties in very compressed poems such as Aram Saroyan's single word works.

He divides minimalist poetry into two main categories, "infra-verbal" minimalism and "pluraesthetic" minimalism.

The former involves fissional, fusional and mutational verbal techniques.

The latter includes visual, mathematical and sound poems.

1971

From 1971 to 1976 he worked at Datagraphic Computer Services in North Hollywood, beginning as a delivery boy and later as a computer operator.

1979

He earned an Associate of Arts degree at San Fernando Valley Junior College (1979), and a Bachelor of Arts in English at California State University, Northridge (1982).

1985

He was a participant in international mail art since 1985.

His work was represented in a number of museums and archives devoted to concrete and visual poetry.

Considerations of his work have appeared in Meat Epoch, Factsheet Five, Taproot Reviews and elsewhere.

Born in Norwalk, Connecticut, he lived for around 15 years in North Hollywood, California, before moving to Port Charlotte, Florida.

1987

He was a columnist for Factsheet Five from 1987 to 1992, and wrote a regular column for Small Press Review beginning in 1993.

1994
