For my RSS readers, I am radically redesigning my entire site, so the blog root and RSS feeds are changing. Please visit me at www.jakeadamyork.com and let's go from there. It will probably be another 2-3 weeks before all the RSS feeds are in place, but maybe you can take a gander and let me know what you think of the new look and function until then.

Seriously Mixed Up

And then there's this:

I don't know what to say except that the Marxism Lecture will be offered by the incomparable Gillian Silverman.

I'll miss it because my brother's book With Signs Following: Photographs From the Southern Religious Roadside is being published tomorrow and I'm off to Oxford, Mississippi, to help celebrate and maybe spill some whiskey on Faulkner's grave.

Upcoming

I've been quiet, I know.

Here's what's in the works that's been keeping me quiet:

  • Working with colleagues to complete the launch of the Colorado Center for Public Humanities. We're hosting heavy-weights Michael Berube (9/6), Stephen Prothero (10/4), and Patricia Limerick (11/1) to start it off.
  • Copper Nickel 8 is almost done and will be released on Friday, September 28th at Matter Studio here in Denver (2132 Market Street). Party begins at 7pm.
  • Same night (9/28) Copper Nickel will publish a book, in addition to its eighth issue. It's called & (that's right) and it features scads of double-exposure super-saturated Lomotography and double-exposure poems by Noah Eli Gordon & Joshua Marie Wilkinson and by Jules Cohen & Mathias Svalina. In publishing this book, Copper Nickel will found Counterfeit Press, on which more soon.
  • Copper Nickel/Counterfeit Press and friends will present the Denver Mint Poetry Festival, October 18-19, featuring readings by Hadara Bar-Nadav, Adam Clay, John Gallaher, Kate Greenstreet, Janet Holmes, Joshua Kryah, Alex Lemon, Wayne Miller, Kevin Prufer, Zachary Schomburg, Mathias Svalina, and Eliot Khalil Wilson, and the opening of an exhibition of artifacts and poetry at The Lab.

I'll check in with you all very very soon.
