"Jump" - A poetry and music soundscape by producer Justin Dullum and spoken word artist Will Conley
The talented, innovative musician Justin Dullum and I recorded my poem "Jump" at his studio, D.O. Music, in 2002 - back when we both lived in Minneapolis. I gave Justin carte blanche to do anything he wanted to my poem. I threw him some suggestions - make it "echoey", use heavy bass hits, have lots of cut-and-paste of my voice - that sort of thing.
This was the result.Listen to samples of Justin singing and playing guitar at http://www.isound.com/justin_dullum.Saturday, May 8, 2010

Hobo to Will via pic-text moments ago: "Million-dollar view. Didn't cost a dime."
A hobo on social security from Connecticut named Eric passed through Azusa last week, befriended me, set out eastward via bus yesterday carrying only a backpack, a tent, and a duffel bag, made three hundred miles in a day, camped out under the stars who-knows-where, and pic-texted this image to me moments ago with the words, "Million-dollar view. Didn't cost a dime."
