1. Last Words

   The complete title for this multimedia poem is “Last Words (Ordinary People Speak at the Moment of Death / In or Around the New York City Area)” and it is both descriptive of the poem’s theme and suggestive of a key strategy. Organized around eight characters’ final words and the contexts in which those words were uttered, each one is represented by a brief “slice of death” narrative, and a poetic voice from beyond that provides an ironic counterpoint, full of Bigelow’s characteristic darkly understated humor.

2. MUPS

   MUPS (MashUPs) is an online sonic mashup engine
   built in 2012 in Flash (sorry iOS users) by Jhave
   for the sheer pleasure of simultaneity.

   MUPS has been seeded with the following content:

   PennSound MUPS
   1260 audio poems
   from the PennSound archives.

   These audio files are used with permission.
   I gratefully acknowledge the generosity of Charles Bernstein
   and the encouragement of Christopher Funkhouser.

   How does it work: MUPS can play multiple audio files (up to 32 streams) simultaneously. It can also WEAVE those files: by playing short segments of each voice until it encounters silence, then playing the next voice. MUPS offers users control over how the WEAVE occurs.

   Issues: after extended use, MUPS can get confused.
   Refresh your browser. Enjoy.
