Okay, I know I'm only supposed to post one main posting for week 2, but I wanted to also mention how wonderfully fascinated I was by T. Moss's Video Poams -- LOVED THEM. I read the PDF version of the Bubbles video first and found that once I watched the video, I was really intrigued by the blending of music and images and voice with the option of a text version-- it was really well done. (Plan to share this with my cluster). It was kind of trippy in a way that made me tilt my head a lot to figure out what images I was actually seeing and what words where ghosted behind the images.
It got me thinking about the mixed media of poetry and how we (and I mean me) limit ourselves in our definition of poetry. I think one of the things I anticipate in this class is a redefining of what I call poetry. Thanks for this beginning of exploration Elmaz!!
I'm interested in what other people thought of Moss's work.
