Psychedelic Norway

By John Colburn

Psychedelic Norway takes form as site of play and a place for the rupture of expectations. Sentence, folktale, confession, pop quiz--all allow for the chaotic impulse behind the imagination, defying the tyranny of orthodoxies with a visionary midwestern populism that argues for enchantment as the moral imperative of our time.

From "a prayer for dropouts"

. . . you realize you are treading light, you, wherever you are, alone at the booth in an empty river town, buying a ticket for a movie which is also your life, a movie waiting for youto become its field of light
