- Singed. Muted Voice-Transmissions, After The Fire
November 2017
Equus Press, London
Singed articulates a language in trance-lation across different states of speechlessness. A fire, and the effort to remember a lost song, open into a meditation on the transmission of knowledge. The space of writing appears as a material engagement with language which points at its excess; at the ephemeral and the untold which continue to puzzle and enchant, and prompt more writing.

www.zero-books.net/books/f-m-r-l - En Abîme: Listening, Reading, Writing. An Archival Fiction
September 2012
Zer0 Books, London
The book explores listening and reading as creative and critical activities driven by memory and return, reshaped into the present. It introduces an idea of aural landscape as a historically defined cultural experience and contributes to the emerging area of listening as artistic practice, adopting an expansive approach across poetry, visual art and literature.
