‘At rest I’m overcome with sadness / that flows from the socket where old and new bone / tangle with metal shavings’

So much to love and linger on in Andrea Brady’s Desiring Machines. The push and pull against technology, artifice, an overstimulated world.

Thank you bookhaus for hosting a very warm and generous evening last night for the soft launch of Heritage Aesthetics. Lovely to hear and chat with the charming Tom Sastry too.

I'll be running an online workshop on Wed 16th Nov looking at a poem's choreography. How it manages to position itself around a set of ideas while maintaining active patterns of movement which to the reader might feel restless, discursive, associative and sensory. Join us.

On Friday 9th December join us for a special evening of poetry, dance & music. They'll be a reading from Heritage Aesthetics alongside poetry from Maria Taylor Maria-Sophia Christodoulou + music & traditional dance from The Elites. Hosted by Kerry Kyriacos Michael MBE
