Harry Gilonis - Li Shang-yin 'the Inlaid Harp'

Harry Gilonis is a poet, editor, publisher, and occasional critic. Much of his work is inter-textual, involving widely-varying modes of translation and mis-translation.  He has active for a while now with North Hills, a project of 'faithless' recastings of classical Chinese poetry - which turns out to be the most avant-garde writing up until L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E.  (Selections from North Hills have appeared in e.g. Wheel River from Contraband and eye-blink from Veer Books.) The postcard re-presented here was made as a unique contribution to Chris Goode and Jonny Liron’s World of Work, a performance-piece improvised in real time from a pack of 60-odd cards, first presented at the 2010 second Sussex Poetry Festival in Brighton.  

Li Shang-yin is perhaps the most rebarbatively baroque poet in the Chinese classical tradition, and the zither-poem is arguably his most difficult single text, still defying convincing exegesis a thousand-plus years on.  Thanks to Andy Spragg for the initial invitation and for his subsequent patience; much appreciated.

MacGillivray - Cowbellboy

"MacGillivray is a Scottish writer and artist. Her poetry inhabits a rich artistic universe encompassing performance art, song-writing and the use of visual media such as sculpture and photography. Her multi-disciplinary practice gives her words an imaginative scope which few young poets in the UK can rival.

MacGillivray's work summons forth a pantheon of muses, outlaws and showmen from the dark corners of Scottish and American history, animating their world with an incantatory free verse that is shockingly contemporary and hauntingly ritualistic. The poems excavate passion and transgression with precision and sympathy, allowing the reader to witness history from surprising new angles.

Under her birth name Kirsten Norrie, she has a Doctorate in Performance and Scottish Identity, for which she studied at the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art, Oxford University. Her thesis is titled Cloth, Cull and Cocktail; Anatomising the Performer Body of 'Scotland'. The wealth of academic research she undertook as part of this finds further expression in her debut collection, The Last Wolf of Scotland. This work treads a fine line between surreal reality and imaginative abstraction, in order to trace the violence through which national mythologies are forged and perpetuated, from the wilderness of the Scottish Highlands to the piratical showmanship of the wild west.

Her poetry has been published in ASLS New Scottish Writing and Magma; her art criticism in Performance Research and several editions of Art Monthly. She has performed alongside writers such as Alan Moore, Don Paterson, Brian Catling and Iain Sinclair."
