The Stage 32 Videos: Poetry

Houston's premiere spoken word poet, Seth Walker, performs the true story of a tree he once knew at the Talking Stick Coffee Lounge for Venice MoZaic's monthly Art/Music/Poetry showcase accompanied by Lauren Begent and Solomon Schneider. Live Painting by Audrey McNamara. Filmed and edited by Geoffrey Bennett Ulrich of Graven Image Films for Venice MoZaic.

My contribution to National Poetry Month. Everything was shot on iPhone, and edited in DaVinci - a fun experiment filming with the iPhone, while also sharing with my community here the love I have for poetry. Happy Poetry Month filmmakers.

Edgar Allen Poe

it's a song that fuses the Latin sound of the Jarana with electronic and rock elements, turning it into a modern and interesting proposal. With the metaphor of the phoenix, that talks about releasing from mental chains.

It's a song I wrote thinking that no one should be deprived of their land. I can't understand how humanity continues to hurt itself in the name of “progress.” Let's put an end to violence! I don't want to be part of the silence and swallow the world of lies drowned in laughter so as not to cry. FOR THE PEOPLE OF MEXICO AND THE WORLD!!

This song speaks of the magic of art, of enchanting other souls with the dance of chaos, of stories in motion that are rhythmically captured in a painting.

A song inspired by the story of a woman who led a ranch with her daughters. The daily work was visible in her hands and the forgetfulness in her eyes, as the men migrated abroad to work, but didn't always return. It's said that they traveled by train, on The Train of the Forgotten ones (El tren de los olvidados).

It's a very rhythmic electro-pop song that successfully integrates energetic strings and electronic elements. Falling in love is an unknown and exciting force that injects us with life. We can't control it and blindly follow the impulse to connect with that person who makes us feel energy throughout our entire body.

The butterfly metaphor is beautiful because it refers to a colorless, blind creature that lives on the ground, crawls, struggles to see beyond its surroundings, and sooner or later has to face itself in solitude to transform into a colorful, beautiful being that can reach the sky and see the world from another perspective. But it is the journey of a lifetime, the journey of a traveling soul, and that is what this song is for: to celebrate that journey dancing.

Thank you @SPOKENAwards! English subtitles available in the CC for the Dutch poem. Happy to perform spoken word poetry again, and this was also the first time I performed somewhere solo instead of it being part of a theatre performance or poetry book.
