Selected Organs: Parts of an Autobiography / Nichol, bp ; Kroetsch R., 1988
Selected Organs is a part of a larger autobiography entitled Organ Music. The basic idea of these prose pieces was to write an autobiography from a different direction concentrating on the parts of the body. All stories in this autobiography are true and told in a specific style borrowed from the oral story-telling methods of Nichol's grandmother. Nichol also drew the body part for each section. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Sharp Facts: Some Selections from Translating Translating Apollinaire 26 / Nichol, bp., 1980
Nichol demonstrates "copying machine disintegrative tendencies" by repeatedly putting the same text through four different photocopying machines.

The process is the same as that employed by Emmett Williams in a series of poems that are held by the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
