Light Glyphs is an ongoing interview series in which I talk to filmmakers about poetry and to poets about film. The first collected volume was published by Broken Sleep Books and can be purchased HERE, it includes interviews with: John Ashbery, Guy Maddin, Andrew Kötting, Iain Sinclair, So Mayer, and many more. It is a project that explores the sparked intersection, dialogue and interruptive or porous exchange between light & language; what exists in the coupling - or permeable expressions of - film and poetry. The second volume is forthcoming and features interviews with Mark Jenkin, Vivienne Dick, Stephen Broomer, and Huw Wahl.
The emphasis is on, but not limited to, avant-garde and experimental practices that challenge, confuse or transcend the binary that so often defines ekphrastic work: in which one medium responds to another, as though any one medium might be so easily contained. Light Glyphs encourages a more gleefully messy exploration into (or as) the questioning expansion of what film and poetry might be, and further still, become.
