The Reasoning Machine is open
Feed it something — a photo, a piece of text, an object, anything — and tell it what it means to you. Kalvin will write a poem from it, by hand, and send it back to you by email in 1–2 days.
In service to Reasoning Machine, Kalvin Madsen's debut poetry collection, out in February 2027 from Fruiter Press, and its acoustic companion album, The New Coliseum.

Submit your prose/poetry/visual art
Low Hanging Fruit is in the process of becoming. That being said, we are interested in a variety of genres and mediums. From poetry to photography, we seek anything you think can be expressed on a page or screen.
​
While we are interested in an array of mediums, we have some interests. Special attention is given to speculative and socio-political fiction or works meant to challenge world views or color our mental associations. For visual works, anything goes. Comics and compilations/series are welcome, physical and digital art.
