Wordsalad
Friday 19 December, 2008
The internet provides poetry with a means to disseminate audio work cheaply or freely to whoever wants to listen to it.
Wordsalad is a concept. For the time being it manifests itself as a weekly radio program on WSUM-FM, Madison.
Each one-hour installment includes recordings of contemporary authors performing their own work, whether intended for page or stage.
The content is (kind of) arranged in advance, according to a set of rules and random operations.
As the host, I don’t know how it will really sound until it’s in process.
If you’d like to submit audio of your work, contact me at pabaker55 (at) sbcglobal (dot) net
Paul Baker is taking full advantage of these new outlets. Wordsalad is well worth your time.

Alex,
Thanks so much for the mention. I look forward to making more contacts in the UK, home to many important innovators.
