I Think I Know?






           In these two presentations of Taylor Mali’s “like you know”, both offer a form of performance that enhances the words being used. The actual performance by Mali gave the poem much more meaning with his actions and expressions. However I found it very interesting how if you follow how the words appear on the screen in the “textual” representation it offers up its own performance. The words on the screen convey emotion with the pause, or position, or size in which they appear. I think both these forms enhance the original writing and both offer their own form of expression of the writing.
