Latvia’s Jānis Raups, is currently being co-created with Simon Perril as the last assigned EUOIA poet, says Don't Leave. More here.
Raups is an obscure poet-philosopher obsessed with
chromatics, who has been sporadically working on a long lyric sequence of poems
in distrust of the neurological inconsistency of colour behaviours. His
birthdate, 1967, is actually false; 1967 is the date he learnt of, and briefly
came into contact with, during time spent at Heidelberg University,
Dr Wolgang Huber, who went on to found the Socialist Patients’ Collective /
Patients’s Front. This organisation’s commitment to turning illness into a
weapon had a major impact on Raups.
