Ginsberg’s America (Berkeley, 1956), 2009

This book is a visual rendition of Allen Ginsberg’s delivery of his poem America at Berkeley in 1956. The poem—Ginsberg’s voice—is transcribed and typeset in Times Bold, while the audience’s laughter and comments is painted in Indian ink straight on the silkscreen film.

If my child is not picking up the room and I say, “You are lazy,” lazy is an enemy image. If my life partner is not meeting my needs for intimacy and I say, “You are insensitive to my needs,” insensitive to my needs is an enemy image. When we say that some people are “terrorists,” that’s an enemy image. Enemy images turn people into things. When we see the other person as a monster, all we want to do is to punish them. This type of language disconnects us from what’s alive in one another, disconnects us from life

I’m from Detroit, so I don’t use the word meditation. I see it as getting my shit together. This means getting clear on how I choose to live before I go out in the world. I also want to know how to get back to that place if I lose it during the day. In our training I talk about the importance of having a password. When I see myself losing it, I say a password real quickly so I can return to my consciousness of how I choose to live.

He has this deep melancholy to him. Who knows how long he was out there on the shelf. When you look at him, you feel like you’ve made a real difference in his life.
