The Love Song Of J. Alfred Prufrock

(download)

This is my favorite poem, and I have been thinking about it lately. So, I thought I would record it and present it as a podcast. Just 6:40 or so.

(The music in the background is by West Farm, an occasional project I am a part of that features Mike Shawn on keys, Ed Corr on acoustic guitar, and me on electric guitar. The tune is "Cubicle.")

Enjoy!

A Talk On Framing Issues For Public Deliberation

(download)

I had the good fortune of being asked to share some thoughts at the Kettering Foundation's annual Multinational Workshop week. In this session, people working in dialogue and participation came together from Jamaica, Brazil, Romania, Ghana, Ireland, Colombia, Hungary, Russia, and many more. I had the presence of mind to record my brief remarks. (Just 16 minutes.)

Enjoy!
