Poem Brut is entering a new phase, trying to extend beyond just the live events and 3am magazine publications, into something more liminal but concentrated on the possibilities of each poet choosing their own form and method, as well as content, connected somehow to the project’s two real focuses - the mind and neurodiversity, and the possibilities of aberrant method (in light of the normal poetic tradition). This day was this happening - 15 poets together at rich mix, exchanging ideas, what we’re up to, sharing resources and considerations. Open ended, generous, electic, reflecting the genuine originality and difference of the people involved. It was just me pinging out invites to people to see if they were up for it, and then they came, and we chatted and that was it. But it was like what a course of study should be, i think. www.poembrut.com
