Anne Waldman | Joseph Matick | ANNE FILM

A short film based off 9 prompts delivered to Anne Waldman

Directed By Joseph Matick (I cut the footage to film and spliced the audio to tape, more or less cutting it and presenting it as is)

Shot by Ambrose Bye

In the midst of the pandempanic Joseph sent me 9 prompts in Mexico City from Los Angeles. It was my duty to catch Anne off guard and record her response. In his words the result of the inherent poetic stream of consciousness from the poet "encapsulates/embodies the frustration and comedy of the era". 9 was just a number and not mandate. Here we are - Ambrose Bye
