Uh Duh

The conversation between a poet and an artist at their first meeting was recorded. An extract from the transcription is presented:

'So how would you where would you how would you describe what you what you do?'

- Sarah Jacobs

This poet and artist are a slippery pair. The gaps left by their absent presence are clearly visible on the page as aspace for the reader to interact with the text. The particularity of their laughter disturbs me…ha, ha, ha…heh, heh, heh. Like David Bowie’s laughing gnome I can’t quite catch them yet at the same time get left imagining a scary encounter over lunch in which the pair squirt caviar and honey at one another in a Paul McCarthyesque carnival of filth, whilst their transparent words collide in mid-air, smash into one another and leave us quite spent. Writing this tough is a car crash.

– Dr. Simon Morris
