A poetry film by Othniel Smith with footage from the Prelinger Archive and a reading from The Poetry Storehouse by Peg Duthie. The poem, by Rachel Barenblat, originally appeared in April Daily.

It’s entirely possible that I take videopoetry just a bit too seriously. The thing about Othniel Smith’s remixes is that they are fun. This one is a good case in point.

Look for an interview with Smith about his approach to poetry film at the Moving Poems Forum toward the end of the week.
