Poetry and Tea
About This Webinar
MONTREAL – Words that denounce, rhythms that soothe, and images that dare. Teatime has never been so infused with raw emotion as when 12 good friends of Phi take up the challenge of showing themselves in a new light. How? By reciting their favourite poem, allowing us to discover a poetic voice, too.

Singer and Songwriter
Pierre Kwenders, who transcends borders with his compositions in five languages, won ADISQ’s Music Video of the Year for Mardi gras, dubbed the perfect example of "quasi-experimental pop, testing the improbable—what’s never been done before" by Inrocks.
Rapper, Activist, Actor, and Producer
Narcy—born Yassin Alsalman—sees hip-hop as a bridge between East and West, an art that can bring about social change. He teaches hip-hop at Concordia University, has worked with Dave Chappelle and Spike Lee, and was nominated for a Juno award for his video R.E.D. for A Tribe Called Red.
Immersive Director, Writer, and Theorist
Virtual reality theorist Jessica Brillhart has no fear of a cybernetic ecology holds. The former filmmaker on the Google VR team sees all of life in 3D and set the cosmos dancing to the sounds of Beethoven's 5th Symphony. An MIT-acclaimed pioneer revealing her most intriguing poem? Irresistible!
Artist and Model
Miles is a Montreal artist and model based in Paris who lends his body to performance art, videos, and photography. He knows this poem inside out since he used it as inspiration for one of his works, embracing the call to throw himself out the window to create an intimate space to curl up with him.
