The Night, like the Bridge, Another Kind of Arc for Her to Cross

Ella Finer’s work in sound and performance spans writing, composing, and curating, with a particular interest in how women’s voices take up space and how bodies acoustically disrupt, challenge, or change occupations of space. She is currently finishing her first book, Acoustic Commons and the Wild Life of Sound, for Errant Bodies Press. Silent Whale Letters, a correspondence project with Vibeke Mascini, will be published in early 2023 by Sternberg Press.

James Wilkes is interested in how ideas and practices from sound art, translation, and the life sciences inflect the writing of poetry, short fiction, and performance scores. He collaborates across disciplines and art forms and has held residencies at UCL’s Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, the Wellcome Collection, and the Medical Museion. His most recent publication is Mille Regretz: Chansons After Josquin des Prez (Pamenar Press, 2022).
