The original talk
given
September 16, 1979
at the San Francisco Art Institute
in Bob Perelman’s Talk Series
The later essay was based upon this talk
which was improvised
following a rough outline
with a stack of books
to which I could refer
It’s interesting to note
that this version
is just ten minutes shorter
than Charles Olson’s
“endless” reading @ Berkeley
1965
& making a recording
while he & Francie Shaw were also dealing
with a one-week old newborn
& to James Sherry & David Sternbach
for editing the later draft
into something approaching coherence
