Poetry Off The Page: Three Things To Do

Welcome to your exploration of poetry off the page! Thylias Moss explains that Poetry is a Dynamic System in this video poem. This is the video we tried to watch in class.

Call it poetry, sound art or spoken word.
Your task is to tell me what it is.

First:
Pick two short video poems to watch:Limited Fork Video Anthology. Then in your poetry packet, on p 12 (Sound Art) record the title of one of the video poems, tell me what it's about, and answers the questions.

Next:
Comment in 2-3 sentences on two of the recordings linked below using the questions as prompts.

Last of all:
Return here and leave a comment with your definition of poetry/sound art/spoken word.

Tomorrow, we will wordle some poems. If you would like to post any of your poems on this blog (either anonymously or with your name) email your poem to carbinem@gmail.com or talk to me in class. Enjoy your exploration of poetry in video and sound! Pretty soon we'll be recording your poetry :)

Ms. Carbine

    i think video poetry is cool because you can express your poetry with images.

    I think video poetry is a way to show it with movements and all that stuff. I think it also is a better way to express it.

    I think that video poetry is poetry on a video. Video poetry is not my favorite.

    i think video poetry is very deep and i think their talking about things that happened before and they want to share it.
