  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .......... .... Performance Poet? Page enacter? Sound creator? Letter sculptor? Space arranger? The translation between the words, the writing, the bringing in of sound, the movement, the MEANING. That is rad..... I swim between the waves of poetry, sonic art and music, and will be swept away by none. I used to perform in the Poetry-Pop act, ..Maiden Speech.., with my sister Almaryse. Now we both are steadies in the rock formation that is ..The Stress of Leisure... I also collaborate with ..David 'Ghostboy' Stavanger.., running ouTsideRs events and performing in the epic mind warp that is ..'Flight'... My debut collection of poetry, 'A Vast Laugh', with illustrations and collaboration by Joshua Norman, was released through Small Change Press. Hot on its smoking heels is my new periodical, ..Lavender Room Zine-in-a-Matchbox..... .. There are accolades - I won the Slams at the Queensland Poetry Festival and Woodford Folk Festival - and that is what is known as 'good'. What I dig is that it means I get to do MORE poetry. ....Like:.. .. Queensland Poetry Festival.. Random Acts of Poetry.. Brisbane Writers Festival.. National Young Writers Festival.. Brisbane Writers Fringe .. SlammED! .. Velvet Landmine.. Riverbend Poetry.. Poetry UNearthed.. ouTsideRs.. State Library Slam.. Farrago Poetry (UK).. Y Tuesday Poetry(UK).. Poetry Cafe (UK).. .. .. My Poetry involves layers of sonic art. I like to record REAL sounds, I get a buzz from knowing I was there when it happened - so in the tracks you hear above, it was me LIGHTING the matches, TYPING the poem, PRINTING the page, making the PRICE CHECK. The rest is usually loops or samples or muddlings on my circuit bent Casio SK1 or Kaossilator..... I love the connection between music and poetry and experimenting with this fusion. Theatre, words, visual art, words, film, music, words, humour and honesty. Hot damn. .... There are too many good things out there that inevitably turn up in my work - I see in my old age I will be the eccentric blue-rinsed pipe-smoking lady, carrying around an ipod and a microphone - I can't wait.
