Ritallin And Dia Davina (Jan 06 2014)

SHOUT! CLAP! SLAM! Live from the Vancouver Poetry Slam http://VanSlam.ca featuring Ritallin and slam winner Dia Davina. Greg “Ritallin” Frankson is a Toronto-based poet, arts educator and media personality.

His debut collection Cerebral Stimulation was published in 2006, and his words have appeared in numerous anthologies, compilation CDs, chapbooks and musical collaborations. In 2012, Ritallin won the national team poetry slam championship with Toronto Up From The Roots and placed second at the Canadian Individual Poetry Slam. He is currently working on Poet Psychology Vol. III, his latest spoken word recording, which will be completed this winter. http://cytopoetics.ca Listen in on CJSF 90.1 fm in Vancouver, Canada on Saturdays 9:30–10pm.
