Joe Dinki is a poet, author, television producer, and performer.

Denis and Joe talk about Joe’s novel, Laugh in the Dark. They also perform Joe’s poem, Arise, just like they did at numerous Gene McCarthy open mic nights, and just like they did at the very first ever LENS symposium.

Joe mentioned working with folks at Filmrise in New York (formerly City Lights Television) where he first met Jack Fisher, Dave Noll, and Cleve Keller (Keller/Noll, Creators of the reality series, Chopped).

Back when Joe had a local show called, Joe Dinki’s World of Cable, he embodied the then, unforeseen spirit of Wayne’s world with his Garth, Ron Bruno.

You can connect with Joe and see more of his latest work on Joe Dinki’s Facebook page.

Denis mentioned Alex & Allyson Grey’s Chapel of Sacred Mirrors.
