Notation

Overview

Notation navigates the contours of memory following the death of a friend. Broadened by companionship, reading, nature study, and travel, this experimental work questions the boundaries of book and authorship, weaving numerous texts together with close observations of daily life.

For Jordan Dunn, “the idea of the perfect book remains thousands of unbound sheets, photographs, and notes spread across a vast table.” This practice of taking note, of writing the now as it happens, gathers the living—the people we haven’t lost, those here with us in time. Readers interested in experimental poetry, nature writing, and literary memoirs will appreciate Dunn's unique approach.
