| RANT was an experimental performance group at SUNY Buffalo that included, but wasn't limited to, Ric Royer, Monica Karwan, Chelsea Warren, and Brett Masteller. For this 2003 final project show, Monica, Chelsea, and Brett used texts by me and Ric and wrote music and choreographed the poems. My poems were from birdbook. The performers in the pictures below are Monica Karwan, Chelsea Warren, Annelise Abrams, and Meg Massalone. |

| Considering how little I had to do with this production (I knew the RANT people, and they knew my aesthetics/poetics, but all I did was write some poems), I was really impressed with the way it turned out. It looked like my poems. |
