Artifice #4 Release Do!

Now With More Video!

For more details, visit the ARTIFICE blog here!

ARTIFICE 4 features a multi-piece visual/collage poem from my project Trade (Series 1).  

I'll be reading at the event, as indicated--and one of the videos screened will be a video adaptation of my contribution to issue 4.  

It will be swell!  

BEWARE! new video poem

I've been working out the concept and the text for this for about a year now.  This is what happens when I do a collage poem as a video.

Something better than I'd planned!


New Gallery images; video poems

I am grateful for all the visitors--you all are completely awesome!  Check out the three photos just added to theGallery!

Here is something different: Video poems are an area of poetic exploration I am just getting into and am still working out their place in my practice.  They're fun to do, though, and as I develop them they might help me solve the problem of how to "read" my current work (as in poetry readings).  When I appear in front of an audience to deliver a spoken version of the texts I make, I occasionally have to choose work that isn't totally.
