Our college has just been re-painted in Rimbaud style. See for details: http://www.pnca.edu/exposure/news/?sec=news&site_id=1&cat=8&item_id=23 Since Rimbaud is one of the many poets I know by name only, I went for info to: http://www.mag4.net/Rimbaud/NewsE2004.html and found that last year I missed all kinds of interesting absurdities, the project "Rimbaud, The Essential Walker," for example, which was carried out by "marathonian-poet" Gilles Simon and Didier Arnould. Question: have people who know Rimbaud well, or who are merely stuck for something to do, any advice on how to work and teach in a building that is at one and the same time re-encountering visions and departing into new affection and noise? The chosen colors, BTW, are a battleship grey and a kind of vomit yellow/green. More Rambo than Rimbaud?
