that's interesting. Of course, the ability to use projection too is recent,
but I recall fred Wah reading new poems composed on the bus up from calgary
straight from his laptop a few years ago. It wasn't the whole reading, but
it was a sign, perhaps. The audience thought it was very cool...
Given Leigh's play with so many forms of discourse, I bet his performance
was truly different...
