Will Alexander is a poet and visual artist. Working from Los Angeles, he has updated the surrealist vision to write his own cosmic parables, in his own electric incandescent language. Alexander's writing represents a complex distillation of images from many fields, including botany, astronomy, psychology, physiology, mysticism, and history. His books include
Above the Human Nerve Domain, Exobiology as Goddess, Asia & Haiti, Towards the Primeval Lightning Field (essays),
The Stratospheric Canticles and
Sunrise and Armageddon. He has two works forthcoming:
Alien Weaving (Green Integer) and
Sri Lankan Loxodrome (Canopic Publishing). The International Biographical Centre in Cambridge, England named Will Outstanding Scholar of the 20th Century, and he was also recognized by the Whiting Foundation for exceptional literary achievement in New York. In 2002 Will received a fellowship for poetry from the California Arts Council.

Requiem, (Les Figues, 2005) and the recent chap/micro books
