alt-poetry, alt-pedagogy

In early 2001 the Writers House held a symposium on the possible connection between experimental poetry and alternative pedagogy. It was webcast live and several dozen people participated from afar via email and telephone. The poet Joan Retallack came to KWH from Bard College and was moderator and featured reader. Yesterday we converted the old RealVideo stream into mp3 and then we segmented the long audio recording into 10-minute portions, by topic. Our Faculty Director, Al Filreis, blogged about this and has provided all the links you'll need to listen to this fascinating event.
