wow....not sure I totally follow but I love the way you describer this. Can you define a JAM session, to the uninitiated? I know what a music JAM is, but a poetry Jam? Is that riffing and making up the lyric as you go? I once started a huge drumming session by accident - in Edinburgh near arthurs seat - someone had set up a small square stage. I began beating a rhythm on it with my hands. I thought I was on my own. Turns out there were hundreds of people on the hill who before I knew it had joined in and were dancing and rapping on the 'stage'. It was bizarre and utterly free from ego, and intention really,. lots of people beating out a rythm or dancing together. I watched it take off for a while and then sneaked away. A special moment.
Love the topic and content, not a big fan of the video rendering style. It feels like it is an AI talking whereas it is your humanity that is so amazing.
