Andrew Joron (born March 6, 1955)[1] is an American writer of experimental poetry, speculative fiction, and lyrical and critical essays.
[2] Joron's later poetry, combining scientific and philosophical ideas with the sonic properties of language, has been compared to the work of the Russian Futurist Velimir Khlebnikov.
Joron later served as co-editor, with Garrett Caples and Nancy Joyce Peters, of the Collected Poems of Philip Lamantia, published by University of California Press (2013).
In 2017, Joron performed on theremin in Blood of the Air, Sheldon Brown's composition based on the pitch patterns of poet Philip Lamantia's voice.
In 2023, a French death-metal band, Deathcode Society, used Joron's poem "Mazed Interior" (from his book The Sound Mirror) as the lyrics to a song on their album Unlightenment.
