	John Giorno - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Giorno (born 1936) is an American poet and performance artist.
		Giorno and Warhol are said to have remained very close until 1964, after which time their meetings were rare.
		Review of sound poetry performance - Giorno is described as 'an elder statesman of bohemia'; also includes brief discussion of his technique of phrase repetition.

	The Mick Sinclair Archive: John Giorno
		JOHN GIORNO is a "live poet" who had his creative genesis in the artistic melting pot of mid-60s Manhattan.
		Giorno's people are glad to get out of the supermarket "without incident" experience a nausea worthy of Sartre while waiting for the elevator, recognise that "life is a killer" and believe that it's in filth, sleaze and garbage that the jewels of life can be found.
		Giorno's well known technique of repeating a line several times with growing volume works as a kind of vocal underlining.

	Artful Dodge - Original Interviews - John Giorno
		JOHN GIORNO'S CONTRIBUTION to American literature has involved the attempt to link poetry with other media, getting it out of the perfect-bound closet and more into the communication mainstream.
		The result is not a hushed voice of a speaker against a backdrop of generically soft music; it is the poem creating its own music, in its most fluid and immediate state, where the momentum of sound and channelling of phrase can present introspection or frenzy.
		Certainly his work has the ability to set the reader or listener on edge, but there is more to Giorno's work than just a reflection of cultural brutality, as in his poem "Johny Guitar" where he uses two simultaneous columns of interlooping stories and vantage points to lead the reader through a modern cultural inferno.

		Giorno, though, a native New Yorker with his eyes on the horizon, projected himself into the pop psyche with furious energy and subversive ingenuity.
		Giorno knows perfectly well that his frank memoirs of Great Anonymous Sex with the late Keith Haring in a subway station toilet or with Andy Warhol, sucking his toes while Giorno whacks off into his silver hair, will get him loads of publicity.
		But the thing is, Giorno is so humble, so compassionate and so compelling in his writing that he transcends the kind of slapstick sex-schtick that Madonna hawks, and makes it seem in equal measure profound, important and familiar, even if you're straight.

		John Giorno: On Memorial Day weekend in 1963 we went away for a few days and I woke up in the night to find him staring at me - he took a lot of speed in those days.
		John Giorno: "I was sitting on a seventeenth-century Spanish chair as he checked out where to put his tripod and lights and suddenly Andy was on the floor with his hands on my feet, and he started kissing and licking my shoes.

		Leave it to John Giorno to immortalize that multifaceted voice on this astoundingly comprehensive box set.
		Giorno has been underappreciated in his lifelong quest to infect the world with words via technology--he's the guy who invented "Dial-A Poem" in 1968--but perhaps by sharing full billing on the cover of this box he'll get some belated recognition.
		Giorno was able to choose from a "vast archive" of readings, and organizes his selections roughly chronologically by the piece, not the reading of it.

		Giorno and Burroughs met in '64 through Panna Grady, a Dakota apartment resident "with a bit of bread and a literary bent" who liked any association with the beats and the pop art crowd.
		Giorno went on to create performance prose masquerading as a gossip column in Culture Hero magazine, turning his howling laments and mantra-like poetry to Dial-A-Poem—a New York City phone forum for poets to connect with a wider audience to which Allen Ginsberg, John Cage and Burroughs contributed new works.
		Giorno, a Buddhist, felt a "karmic connection" to Burroughs—"a truly kind, gentle compassionate man"—from their first meeting.
