Poetry Reading Pt. 1

Now that I have my finally brought myself around to making one of my poetry readings public, I think it's time to reflect on it a bit.  First of all, it's important to know that it's the first of a four part series that I recorded using my laptop cam and mic.  The material is taken from three different books and most of it is changed from the official versions.  I like to think that placing these things next to each other gives you some very interesting things to think about.  Surprisingly, the videos don't change a whole lot from the versions in the books, but a lot of art is about context and how the audience views it.  I've had all four videos posted for a while now, but they haven't been publicly accessible until just now.  I thought that if I could find the right moment it would be cool to have a big fancy entrance, but I ended up deciding that I needed to be more visible before I can think about things like that.  I ended up liking the idea so much that I want to start making more things public so that it's out there while I work on new material.
