notes on AH and Performance Poetry

Hi!

Are you doing Komninos? I am tutoring in this and have the OTEN unit of work. I could scan some pages for you if it would help you.

Yeah, I can send you stuff by email on most of the AH topics you names. If you give me an email or postal address I can send copies of stuff on CD. Hope to hear from you soon. Best wishes,

question

so did anyone actually end up doing performance poetry?
and if so how did u go?
i did it...and i loved it!
i learnt so much, and had an excellent time doing it!

I could have done it at the drop of the hat but once again a great thumbs up to our teaching staff! Kept me well informed haha...doesn't matter though...I'm stoked with what I wrote...

I had a look at Performance Poetry since I loved poetry and thought I'd might extend on it...

Well... There should be some workshops eventually... just keep yourself informed.

An exemplar for one year that underwent performance poetry experimented on a range of software and audio techniques, so what I'm saying is is that it definitley goes beyond the quality of your words. It was about women that murder, with reference to canonical texts. The person that was telling me (A HSC marker in a workshop for EE2 students) said that he heard the piece and was frightened as hell because of the quality of the audio and content. Had the murderer whispering into Marker's right ear! Interesting stuff for you there.

I found it difficult because the research I found were passionate about the visual aspect of performance poetry rather than audio. If you can find it, that's brilliant.

^ I have an entire home studio & am very well equipped on most professional audio programs with PLENTY of experience...REALLY should have done this but sadly it never happened....If ANYONE needs help on this though...get in touch with me...

i am really keen on exploring this medium, but i've had no real experience with it.
im into drama and music and the origins of this style of poetry- hip hop, rap etc.

there was a great article in SMH a little while ago.

here is the article online. click on the first link in this google search.
i will be there on wednesday. for the token word thing.

tug dumbly is also my inspiration for performance poetry. im going for an edgy, witty satire on popular culture for mine.
i have a lot to explore and research as yet. a ready for help from u guys!
