    Poo, murmur, circle

    Algal Blooms travels through several dimensions to find out more about the mysterious beauty of poo. Along the way he hears the voice of John Todd, who constructs living machines and Elaine Ingham, soil microbiologist. He listens to Burnt Sage for her great wisdom. And he reads the saucy botanical poetry of Erasmus Darwin, a brilliant man who produced an early theory of evolution long before his grandson did. Snippets of John Todd are taken from the doco, 'Ecological Design: Inventing the Future' Snippets of Ingham from the wonderful 'Symphony of Soil' doco. Songs: Shiho – Tenshingoso, Tomoshibi, Forestland Brian Eno, Jon Hopkins and Leo Abrahams – Late Anthropocene Hiroshi Yoshimura – Deep Echoes Cosmic Sounds – Capricorn Laraaji – Kalimba, Laarajingle, Quiet Space No.4, All Pervading Stevie Wonder – The First GardenSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    FREE

    ‘free writing’ is a writing technique in which you write continuously for a set period of time or set number of pages, regardless of spelling, punctuation, rhetorical concerns. its aim is to loosen your mind, to eradicate the barriers of self, the internal critic. do it fast. write whatever comes to mind even if that’s the words ‘nothing, nothing, nothing’. make no corrections. do not stop until the time is up or the pages exhausted. tracks from: jack kerouac/steve allen, throbbing gristle, of habit, carl stone, ana da silva/phew, beatriz ferreyra, silt, gerhard rühm.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
