WZRD Radio(88.3 FM), with a new host running the Sunday even poetry radio show, had Janet Kuypers reading poetry from her book Close Cover Before Striking (which is now in it’s 2nd printing, with a cover of matches, versus it’s original neon green cover) for later release as part of audio CD releases of her book.
While Kuypers was there (in an effort to test her new spy camera for performance art shows), Kuypers videotaped the radio show not only with her usual video camera, but also with a “mini cam” (a camera the size of a car door opener), so there are multiple views of her readings from this live radio show.
