he uses his voice and articulates his words just like a master jazz improviser would. beautiful voice, beautiful words, thanks for sharing.

Interesting stuff. I wonder if he really thinks poetry can be an integral part of that social change. Thanks for posting.

I've met a fair cross of pious American non-Asian Zen-Buddhists to give this an honorary mention in the Encyclopedia Dramatica for "wapanese", no lack of respect for Gary though.

I love this speech at the end.. this beautiful dance that can only exist by being unpredictable

Gary is by far my favorite writer of all time. He should read at a few music festivals while he's still at it. It would do the world a lot of good.

What, do you mean him doing a reading of the Han Shan stuff? I don't know if there are any videos. I do have many audio recordings of his readings though, which includes some I think.

[pamukkito]

can you please share them on youtube?

now if i could only find his hanshan translations i could die happy.
