Atlantic Islands Festival

This was a big event, which I have already mentioned on Luchair (my keyboard isn't recognising accents this morning!), and which will have ongoing resonances with a lot of my work over the next few months.

There was a lot of interesting work in many genres and media, but particularly impressive were Richard Ashrowan's lovely films (see more here), and the lovely Atlantic Islands Suite, which premiered on Wednesday, and which I reviewed here.

Now I'm home for a couple of weeks, writing slate poems and star poems and grass poems, until I go to an Arvon course in August.
