Scott Thurston’s most recent book is Phrases towards a Kinepoetics (2020). He edits the Journal of British and Irish Innovative Poetry, teaches at the University of Salford and is writing a book on the relationship between dance and poetry.



Helen Davison’s practice occupies the moments where communication fails. They seek to share experiences of the queer(ed) body by exploring the palpability of the voice and resonance. Leaning in to uncertainty and vulnerability to find moments of cathartic transformation and exchange.

Edwin Torres (Nuyoricua, USA) is a lingualisualist, rooted in the languages of sight and sound. He has performed his multi-disciplinary bodylingo poetics worldwide and taught his process-oriented workshop, Brainlingo: Writing The Voice of The Body for many years at universities, theaters and beaches.
