I don’t know much about Magic cards but T.S. Eliot should be wielding the Rod of Ruin.

Is there a collected videos of Anne Waldman?
Shouldn’t there be?
Wow — this is awesome, Adam. There definitely should be a collected videos!
I first came across it in Lyn Blumenthal’s “What Does She Want” video series.

A lot of libraries have copies. The Video Databank in Chicago also, of course, has a set. (It was co-founded by Blumenthal.) The VDB is located in the Michigan building of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and is free and open to the public.
