Photos from Pico

[N.B.: Yes, I realized after I pressed the publish button that I had missed the opportunity to title this post "Pictures from Pico."]
Daniel Bourque, who had directed me in Ron Pullins' Pico for F.U.D.G.E.'s ten minute play festival in May, snapped some photographs during tech rehearsals. Here are a few:
Pico (after borrowing his clothes from Arlecchino) presents a relic (a prop Vulgate from a Teatro delle Maschere show.)
Moss (Shelley Wood) didn't order entertainment.
Pico presents the fairy tale of the man and the woe-man. Masks and puppets by yours truly.
The bums (Thomas Collins and Sally Nutt) watch the show.

More photos can be found in Daniel's photostream.

Signs of Our Times

Three of my photographs appear in Signs of Our Times, an online gallery curated by composer and multi-media artist Jane Wang and presented by Mobius Artists Group.

"Sine Waves and Canadian Geese" at Boston City Hall

As mentioned previously, my poem, "Sine Waves and Canadian Geese" was chosen by Charles Coe as part of an exhibit sponsored by the Mayor's Prose and Poetry Program at Boston City Hall. As I had just received a digital camera as a birthday present, I decided to document the poem before the exhibit ended on May 23rd. This was the second time on of my poems had been selected.

As I toured the entire exhibit, which spanned nearly every floor of City Hall, and photographed some of my friends' poems as a favor to those without digital cameras, including work by Elizabeth K. Doran, Chad Parenteau, Mignon Ariel King and James E. Van Looy, my frequent colaborator in Cosmic Spelunker Theater. I was particularlly taken with a poem by Ellen Steinbaum for having evoked the paintings of Childe Hassam an American Impressionist painter who so often captured scenes of Boston.

On my way out, I decided to sign and date my poem posted by the elevators-- I thought it might be of interest to city archivists.
