WEEK ONE: July 1-July 7 History, Race and Polis, and “Karma’ of the Modernists The Kerouac School at Naropa University, founded in 1974 of its own volition and not as an extension or offshoot
of an English Department, has roots in the most innovative aspects of the New American Poetry, and has extended
itself over decades to include new praxis and world poetics, reveling in diversity and hybrid form. It seems
important given the sorry divisive and tormented nature of US of A political adversity, including gender, class and
racial divides, to review and examine “where we have been.” What is the legacy of Williams, Stevens, Pound, and
Stein, and their post-modern inheritors? How did they set the bar, what were their prejudices, and why do we still
feed off their work? What is the continuing narrative? Where has the gaze gone since, beyond Euro-centrism? This
week, we will look at our own modes of attitude, and the dark shadows of influence under newer world “orders”.
The Kerouac School has always looked to collaboration amongst artists and art forms and the philosophies and
orality of Asian and indigenous art forms. Poet/art thinker Bill Berskon will present a lecture on Gertrude Stein and
her family art legacy, and Jerome Rothenberg will carry us forward to investigate the continuing shamanic powers
of poetry.

Steins as family––Gertrude, Leo, Sarah and Michael––as nucleus in the Paris art scene, collecting pictures (Cézanne, Picasso, Matisse, Gris and more), talking and writing about them. 2. The Arcadians––how the pictures so often projected desperate visions of Arcadia, or the Golden Age, when, as Hesiod said, humans lived among the gods, “without sorrow or strife.” “It was like a fantasy of what life’s like when it’s not like it is.” ––Bernadette Mayer.

Hellfire, Drought, and Brimstone: A New Eco-Poetics
Alarm! Human driven modification to the planet’s ecosystems contributes to rising atmosphere
greenhouse gas levels causing extreme fluctuations in weather, altered species distribution, and increase
in extinction rates. And whole cultures and languages are going out of existence as well, affected by basic
human struggle for survival under increasing duress. As we experience, our planet is undergoing
unprecedented instances of climate change, with water clearly emerging as the inestimable element in the
balance of our “oikos” ( root of the word “ecology” meaning house). Fire, floods, and drought have been
causing havoc, as well as strange denial in the will or the polis around issues of gun control in a culture
run wild with violence. The connections between man-made plunder, from frakking to war, have been
established in terms of how we eschew guardianship of our planet and our own communities. Can poets
and artists envision an alternative to this dystopia? How do we address violence, amnesia, deathwish, and
the extreme- almost biblical conditions- of an altered world? How are we adapting?
Faculty: Julia Seko, Robert Gluck, Samuel R. Delany, Orlando White, Elizabeth Willis, Kristin Prevallet,
Ron Silliman, Fred Moten, Selah Saterstrom, HR Hegnauer, CA Conrad, and Rae Armantrout.

WEEK THREE: July 15-July 21
Kulchur Connections and Beyond
This week we are reaching out to poets and writers whose work has been strategic in addressing other
kulchurs through translation, educational projects, investigative poetics, and cross-cultural collaboration
of all kinds with forays into Morocco, the UK, India, and pockets of our own continent. We are asking
our guests to bring us the news from other zones of creative and generative activity. How are we suited to
create our own schools and cultural programs, and raise support for artist-run enterprises that might be
sustainable into the future? How can we be progressive entrepreneurs of a new cross-cultural dynamism?
How can we better understand and enlarge our awareness through forums, archives, libraries,
international online magazines, study centers, and residencies that promote exchange through study and
scholarship of languages and cultures? The projects to consider might reach back centuries, or exist in the
interstices of a new hybrid diaspora.

Third Mind: A Poetics of Performance, Cooperation and Affinity
The Kerouac School’s final SWP week is a concatenation of many voices, seeing that poetry, and
storytelling, and cut up, and vocal play in its many guises are not closed systems. Rather, we delight in
the possibilities of an applied poetics, applied in this case to working with others, be it the recording
studio, the letterpress print shop, the meditation hall, the hallways, byways, and hiking trails of our
“experiment” in collaboration. The term “third mind” comes from the collaborations and cut-up and
erasure experiments of William S. Burroughs (former teacher at the KSDP) and Brion Gysin, writer and
visual artist. We will create libretti, music, oral duets, movies, multifaceted narrations, and innovations
with montage, and see what emerges “dreaming as one”.
