The new MINDFUL PLEASURES YouTube channel

Mindful Pleasures has just birthed its first spin-off, a YouTube channel where I will read, talk about, and sometimes even perform great works of art, literary and otherwise. The first video, consisting of a very brief introduction followed by a reading from the opening pages of Ulysses, has just gone live. I'm using my laptop's webcam and built-in microphone, so video and audio are primitive compared to, say, Rick Beato's Everything Music channel, but the quality is stunningly good relative to that Edison wax cylinder onto which Walt Whitman read one of his short poems.
