Free – $5Alan Bernheimer‘s latest collection is From Nature (Cuneiform Press, 2019). Recent work has appeared at Across the Margin and at SFMOMA’s Open Space and in The Equalizer, The Delineator, and Hambone. The Spoonlight Institute was published by Adventures in Poetry in 2009. Born and raised in Manhattan, he has lived in the Bay Area since the 1970s. He produces a portrait gallery of poets reading on flickr. His translation of Philippe Soupault’s memoir, Lost Profiles: Memoirs of Cubism, Dada, and Surrealism, was published by City Lights in 2016. More information is at The Electronic Poetry Center.
Seann McCollum is an art-school dropout from Philadelphia and the author of twenty-odd self-published books of poetry and prose. He is currently at work on a book-length apology for helping to ruin Portland. Despite appearances, he does not, in fact, hate everything.
