At first, the poems in Tensegrity seem like small machines, disassembled and leaking grease into an overgrown lawn. It becomes clear after the first few pages though that these machines on the lawn connect, and that the result is a living thing "soggy with the laws inside [it]." Tensegrity is a book about being smeared across different layers of description and discretization. We are both human and humanity. We both are and are not our selves. And though we are not who we used to be, the poems remind us that we are made from them.

"The very title, Tensegrity, warns us we're entering a work that's fundamentally strange and new. I've spent a good amount of time simply sitting with this work, allowing images of labyrinths and Dyson spheres to shuffle themselves around, moving poem by poem into being. The poems here are not merely puzzles or machines though, they're alive, right there, bleeding on the page. This is a masterwork."
