Some modern writers\, like panelists David Tomas Martinez\, Philip Metres\, and Tomas Q. Morin\, sharpened their ball skills\, their attention to detail\, their verbal and non-verbal communication\, and their team play\, on the basketball court. This panel will explore the art of athletics and the athletics of art\, calling a truce between the jocks and nerds once and for all. \nPRESENTERS\nPhilip Metres has written numerous books\, including Shrapnel Maps\, Sand Opera\, and The Sound of Listening.
