Fiction. Drama. Shortlisted for the ReLit Award 2005. THE WORTHWHILE FLUX collects Frost's dynamic performance pieces, including the texts from some of his beautifully designed chapbooks self-published over the last decade. "Tonight you'll have a filthy dream" was a collection of stories first performed in Montreal from 1994 to 1999, accompanied by the images used in performance. It included the surreal pedagogy of "5 minutes with the Communist Manifesto" (the digitally remastered version) and "5 minutes with/without the ground," a story about airplanes and war that proved to be creepily prescient in September 2001. "I feel perfectly fine" was the third volume in the Backwards Versions trilogy of chapbooks. THE WORTHWHILE FLUX collects the best of the author's chapbooks along with newer performance pieces and some never-before-seen writing. And, although the stories and photographs will now be forever fixed on the page, the experience is still definitely worthwhile. Corey Frost has received wide acclaim for his self-published chapbooks and his multi-media performances that reverberate with surrealist wit and proletarian pop. He has travelled extensively, including two tours of duty on the unique Perpetual Motion Roadshow in Canada and the US, and performance tours of Europe and Australia. Currently he is pursuing a PhD and lives in Brooklyn, NY.
