my (relatively) new book and website

Dear All,

In the past year I brought out a small hard print book with Redfoxpress, here is the link to it:

Also, I set up a rudimentary site, mostly, but not only, for my downloadable books:

I wish you a happy and healthy 2023!

"Short Movies"

 And this is just to make an old collaboration with Jukka-Pekka Kervinen more available. Hope you will like it. I certainly enjoyed the game. (The "movies" work more smoothly if you download the pdf first.)

my name and other issues

This is a slowly progressing blog but I still keep posting links to downloadable works. 

A few years ago I started translating my visual poems into verbal descriptions. The idea had come from questions by friends and my questions to them about this or that (mostly technical) detail in my works. Then it became a small game, and I started using the descriptions in themselves, without the visuals. The other texts in this collection are more or less autobiographical. Mostly old but partly unpublished stuff updated that I've processed a bit differently.

 And here is the link:

The Cloud Piece

And here is a link to an esoteric book, edited by Nico Vassilakis and myself and brought out by Otoliths in 2008.

"Probably only the fabled Prieure du Sion has guarded its secrets as closely as The Cloud ..... Society. Now some of its members, tired of the secrecy, have decided to open their texts and visions to the world.  In this slim volume, edited by Márton Koppány and Nico Vassilakis, we see for the first time what has previously been hidden in the clouds." /Mark Young/

Addendum from the early 2010's, published in Nico's Alphabet Noir, in 2016: 

My dear thumbnail, 

Hello my friend, how are you? How are clouds where you are? It has been some time since we have spoken to one another. I wanted to update you on what's been happening. As you know, the letters, our annual records from The Cloud ..... Society of 2008, were seized and frozen several months after publication. Legal action was threatened, because another Cloud ..... Society exists that owns the rights to the name. Also, the two young members of our Seattle chapter unknowingly used cloud material from their public archive to create those stickers. The unfortunate result is that our annual cloud exchange is stuck in limbo, which is a mother cloud of a problem. We don't see clouds as being able to be copy-written. To resolve this issue I propose we republish our letters in a second edition using a different title, The Cloud Letters. This will avoid legal action and thusly make available what would otherwise not be. I look forward to your response. Keep the strength, my friend, and may the sky reward you daily.

 As ever,

 Mr. Behoover

Vice President

My Dear Behoover, 

How nice to hear from you after so long a break! Clouds have gotten darker in Budapest (or it is my weakening eyesight), but we're still in business. My young colleague has gotten fed up with clouds and moved to the Mediterranean where he can concentrate on his "old passion", the sky. (I was not surprised.) The Cloud Letters would be a perfect title and if we get in trouble again for any reason, please bear in mind that our Budapest Office is now specializing in cloud insurance. (I've attached a pair of stamps for your convenience.) 

Hope you're doing well, and I wish you all best,

 m. R. koppp'

Investigations, Forecast, Endgames

Dear All, this is a place to make some of my books available in free downloadable pdf format at the given links. Hope you will enjoy them. I wish you all the best - take good care.

1. Link to the pdf version of my book of 2003, Investigations & Other Sequences, brought out by Ahadada Books. With Jesse Glass' kind permission. (It is out of print but used copies are still available from time to time via Amazon and other book sellers.) The inteview, included in the book, will also explain why the title of this blog is BROKEN and REDUCED (and not, say, Johnson and Johnson).

I'm not planning to add new notes to this blog too frequently. (But who knows.) My main purpose was simply to give a home to the abovementioned links.
