From the page to the stage | A John Jay student/faculty performance

Spoken Word, Bespoke Music is the culmination of an innovative class designed and taught by spoken word poet Dr. Crystal Endsley and NY-Emmy award-winning composer Joseph Neidorf. John Jay Honors students Rae Ross (forensic psychology) and Brian Wade (law and anthropological psychology) used the creative process as a research method to investigate the multilayered impacts of art as a form of resistance. Their poems are influenced by the interviews they conducted, published literature they found and their lived experiences. Throughout the writing process, they developed original music to accompany their poems, which will intricately inform listeners' experiences.
