About this Event
With poet Terrence Arjoon!
Poetry has the power to absorb excess everyday language and rejuvenate it-- in the same way that a mushroom breaks down plastics, tasting of licorice. Students will encounter the work of Will Alexander, Leslie Scalapino, Harryette Mullen, and Clark Coolidge. Each of these voices engage in radical détournement of various pools of language- be they memoir, advertisements, science textbooks, and rearrange them into poetry that activates the revolutionary potential of everyday language.
About the Instructor: Terrence Arjoon is a poet, editor, and critic whose work has appeared in Tagvverk, The Poetry Project Newsletter, and Smooth Friend, among other publications. His chapbook Acid Splash, or Into Blue Caves was published by 1080press where he is an editor. His book The Disinherited is forthcoming from Ugly Duckling Presse.
