Seit 2010 lädt Anna Bromley Künstler*innen, Aktivist*innen und Kulturforscher*innen in das Radiostudio ein, um gemeinsam über Sprache und Stimme im Kontext von Sound, Politik und Alltag nachzudenken. Was als Recherche-Format in einem Künstler*innen-Radio begann, wurde über die Jahre zu eigenständigen Ausstellungsbeiträgen, die das Radio und seine sicht- und unsichtbaren Übertragungskörper in den Blick bzw. in die Ohrmuschel nehmen. Die Publikation spiegelt Bromleys kollaborative Radiopraxis durch den erstmaligen Abdruck einer Auswahl ihrer radiophonen Essays. Darüber hinaus gibt die Publikation einen Einblick in die damit verbundenen Ausstellungsformate, die ebenso die Zusammenarbeit mit einer großen Anzahl an Künstler*innen, Aktivist*innen, Radiomacher*innen und Theoretiker*innen einschließt. Als Insert enthält das Buch einen Bild- und Textindex zu Bromleys weiteren künstlerischen Arbeiten.Zum Buch
In this collection of poetry, written over half a lifetime, Hayley Ann Solomon focuses primarily on the pursuit of excellence, immortality achieved through finite life, love in all its forms, and social justice. As it waxes and wanes, the collection cycles through sequences of lyrical ballads, sonnets, elegies, haiku, snippets of nonsensical verse; all blended with a substantial dose of existential philosophy and social comment. The collection covers a full spectrum, from the darkest psycho-social moments, to zeniths of absolute joy. The liberal use of consonance, assonance, alliteration, echoes and half-echoes, rhyme and cross-rhyme make for a style rich in sound-play. This, together with strong metrical awareness – very often iambic or trochaic pentameter and tetrameter – evokes a flow that is quite typically euphonic. There is therefore a sense of lyricism despite a broad diversity of topics and moods. The anthology evolves to become a promise of regeneration, in synchrony with the phases of the moon, from which it takes its celestial title.Zum Buch

An autistic feminist author looks at women's history, in search of her 'weird sisters.' It seemed to me that many of the moments when my autism had caused problems, or at least marked me out as different, were those moments when I had come up against some unspoken law about how a girl or a woman should be, and failed to meet it. An autism diagnosis in midlife enabled Joanne Limburg to finally make sense of why her emotional expression, social discomfort and presentation had always marked her as an outsider. Eager to discover other women who had been misunderstood in their time, she writes a series of wide-ranging letters to four 'weird sisters' from history, addressing topics including autistic parenting, social isolation, feminism, the movement for disability rights and the appalling punishments that have been meted out over centuries to those deemed to fall short of the norm. This heartfelt, deeply compassionate and wholly original work humanizes women who have so often been dismissed for their differences, and will be celebrated by 'weird sisters' everywhere.Zum Buch
