the Natoleon Effect

having lunch with a friend and photographer yesterday and discussing my poetry album, i had an epiphany (or she did i suppose, i just rode the thought process all the way through to the other end). The idea, title, and all that associated biz of the CD comes down to a phrase i would like to coin here..... the Natoleon Effect:
              A conscious effort to organize and intersect the creative and enlightened energies of a particular temporal-spatial location. With the end result being a greater center of concentrated artistic energy whose ripples are felt both in space and time long past the point of conception.

This is essentially the foundation of the slam fam, the intangibles, the just poets, MetaLingua Franca, and the other creative endeavors that i have tried to cultivate since my later undergraduate days. it may not have been conscious at first, but has now become so. So this is the idea behind my spoken word cd. meaning it wont be a lot of just me. because really, who wants to listen only to me? i usually dont most of the time.
