I enjoyed the interesting approach with the collaboration, especially the poetry division paired with the synthesizer electric music. I ended up watching the video on the Functionally Literate youtube channel which I’m amazed at. Is there a way I can find out if co-productions like these are happening near where I live?

  While there will likely be more Pink Fires in the future, they will probably be located in Orlando. This event is unique. Where do you live?

    I live in Ohio, I love it’s uniqueness as you pointed it that’s why I wondered if there might be similar events like this.

I don’t have a handle on the Ohio scene. I spent 3 years in NYC earning my MFA, and I attended nearly every literary event I could, and didn’t witness anything close to The Pink Fire. I’m glad you liked the video, so there is experiencing it that way. But one solution to being excited by such a long-distance event is to make your own event where you are. If you want to write an essay for TDO about your sense of the Ohio scene, I’d be interested in seeing it.
