"Inspired by the work of Barbara Kruger, Wayne Koestenbaum, and K. Silem Mohammad, the poems that comprise 'An Evening of Humor & Anxiety' are comprised of rearranged magazine cutouts. The text and images explore themes of gay adolescence and urban nightlife, creating somewhat of a self portrait from re-coded mass media."--Anthony Bastone

"An Evening of Humor and Anxiety" was originally created in the spring 2015 course "Creating a Magazine: A Multimedia Approach," co-taught by Professor Lise Friedman and Professor Molly Kleiman.
