New Jersey as an Impossible Object

New Jersey as an Impossible Object is an on-going multimedia project, which uses William Carlos Williams' Paterson as a psychogeographical map for the city Paterson. The blog documents the resonant space between the poem and its restless referent with audio, video, photos, and commentary. The project will culminate in a large scale audio piece.
