Video: Calling

A new video poem for you today, brand spankin' new.

Hope you like the video for "Calling." I shot the footage last week on a sunny drive--so many of my poems are driving-related (because I drive quite a bit right now--I teach about an hour away).

I had the most fun with the music this week...I had been missing my guitar, so I did a little tinkering and experimenting. It's fun for me to create music that has no words (I'm not sure how well these little soundtracks stand on their own, but it's nice to try something new in terms of process).

Next week, I'll be presenting at Pecha Kucha here in Columbus, and I'll be mentioning this poem (not necessarily the video)--I'll be talking about generating inspiration. I'm definitely looking forward to it!

Very happy May and Friday to you. Hope you enjoy this video, and that your weekend is wonderful.
