In case you have lost sight/site of Chris Sullivan (poet, photographer and
song maker) he continues to live in post-Katrina New Orleans where he makes
careful record of the catastrophic tragicomic particulars to be found there.
His website is:

Chris's visual collection of over one hundred refugee basketballs, Poboy
signage and 'underperforming billboards' becomes a visit to an underworld (a
macro-mirror of the 'disappeared'.) The Federal Gov's continued complicity
with Katrina to make permanent the urban removal of a population of the poor
is more than self-evident.
If you are in Charleston, Chris Sullivan's work is on exhibit at the Light
Factory. Details: http://lightfactory.org
