This is the product of a long distance collaboration with London-based multi-media artist Steve Keane that resulted from having my poem accepted by the editors of Born Magazine. Its editors describe Born Magazine as “an experimental venue marrying literary arts and interactive media. Original projects are brought to life every three months through creative collaboration between writers and artists.”

After the editors at Broadsided Press selected my poem “Insurance Man 1946,” they passed it along to their group of artists for illustrating. Jim Benning, an Anchorage-based artist, chose it.

While Jasmine Dreame Wagner and I were in Egypt in January of 2007, we recorded the reverberation of voices, movement, and sounds in Khufu’s Tomb, the stone chamber in the center of the Great Pyramid. These sounds, along with violin by Jonathan Zalben and Jasmine Landau, are accompanied by a poem based on artifacts from the Egyptian Museum. This track will be included in an audiobook of sound, music and poetry.

An interview I conducted with Camille Dungy, author of What to Eat, What to Drink, What to Leave for Poison, appears in Boxcar Poetry Review, Issue 9, July 2007.
