Books, Chimeras

Books around me this year while writing of Chimeras:

Voice of Hearing / You

Voice of Hearing by Vivian Darroch-Lozowski is an extraordinary book, first published in 1984 and made available again this autumn by Christof Migone on Squint Press.

I have contributed to a conversation with Vivian, Christof, Ann West and jake moore to launch the book. The event will be broadcast at 6pm GMT on Saturday 12 December, as part of the project You.

Dominique Hurth, Mixtape

I am thrilled to have contributed a text for Mixtape, a publication that brings together works by Dominique Hurth from 2008 to 2020.
In response to the audio tracks included in the edition I wrote a monologue in which a voice, trapped in a tape, thinks and sings with the sounds.
