- Fun combination of practice repertoire this week! First slide is for a concert in October (lots of pitches and rhythms to learn, so I'm starting wayyyy ahead of time), second slide is for a film project this summer. Can anyone guess the works or composers? 😁
- (1/2) Really pleased to show some material from Speaking Towards One Another! First, we shared some work at @cafeotodalston.bsky.social for eavesdropping.london. Here's Dùthchas, a work for voice & electronics by Erin Thomson, performed by me and with beautiful BSL interpretation by Megan McArthur.
- (2/2) In this work, we explored abstracted and panned electronics with physical locations of interpretation and visual vernacular. Megan and I also explored our characters in the work and connections to nature either as individuals or entangled as one entity. youtu.be/H-ljDgMGgIU?...

- I'm working on an article which should be finished in the next day or two, and I could use feedback on it before I edit. Do any of my academic friends have interest in reading / giving feedback on 5000 words about feminist concepts in electroacoustic music & integrated sign language performance? 🙏🏼

Through abstract collages & choreography, we're paying homage to female artists thru the centuries. Here I'm posing as Yma Sumac, the Peruvian opera singer known for...
- ...her vocal range & virtuosic extended techniques. We used fabric to create a long pyramid-like shawl and fastened an LP to my head to symbolise a Peruvian wide-brimmed hat and Sumac's illustrious recordings, showing Peruvian traditions & Hollywood glamour that the diva exemplified in her career. ✨

- Found an interpreter, thank you all!! 😁
- I've been at a point with work where I could really, really use an admin assistant, but I'm also terrified of handing off emails and my calendar/diary to anyone that's not myself. Has anyone else experienced this, and maybe know how to take the plunge and delegate?

- Glasgow friends, recommendations for recording studios in Glasgow for classical music?? Particularly for operatic vocals, which need a slightly bigger room size to accommodate volume. This would be for a pretty hefty recording project (voice and electronics) in the second half of July. Thank you!! 🙏🏼
