Golgonooza |
NEW DVD: GOLGONOOZA"Golgonooza," a poem excerpted from Canto 7 of The Tenting Cantos."Jellystone," the Foreword to The Tenting Cantos."Introduction," wherein I talk about the poem "Golgonooza" and its relation to The Tenting Cantos.From the review by Wendy Vardaman in the March 2008 issue of Free Verse:"...the most compelling aspect of Golgonooza is Ellis’s musical poetry and his delivery of it. The beginning of “Golgonooza” strongly echoes Blake, but rearranges him, too...Ellis’s impulse to synthesize difference is on display in Golgonooza: visual art/music/text; traditional/contemporary; east/west; science/art; academic/playful; ironic/serious; or as Golgonooza puts it, “the verbal non-verbal.”From the review by Sandra Lindow in the March 2008 issue of Star*Line:
"...an incredible thought
experiment...a
Timothy Leary-like kaleidoscoping of the spiritual, arcane and mundane...an
ecstatic celebration of body, mind and spirit."
