Poema Volcánico (Volcanic Poem)

Eduardo Navarro project for Bienal de Cuenca 12, in Ecuador, investigating how to capture a volcano’s energy and using it as a transformative tool. He used a special suit to get to the volcano crater protected from the suplur and high temperatures, to create drawings in a partnership with the GuaGua Pichincha active volcano, using litmus paper, which measured the acidity in the gas emissions produced by the fumaroles inside the crater.

A while ago, I wrote a poem about the experience of buying records in shops, as a kind of post-streaming, tribute to the irreplaceable, tactile, sensory atmosphere of physical stores. The poem ‘Unfulfilled Playlist’ has now been published on Wild Court…

There’s a new poem below. I don’t tend to like explaining poems, but I do appreciate a bit of context. Like many others I suspect, not least in the USA itself, I feel profoundly shaken by recent events there. When I was six, I discovered Ch…

My colleague, Medrie Purdham, suggested Kayla Czaga’s work to me some time ago, and last night I finally got around to reading Midway. I want to call it a delightful book, although I’m afraid that the subject matter–most of the poems focus on the death of Czaga’s father and her grief–doesn’t lend itself to the … Continue reading 9.
