Belfast School of Art, March 2015

I was invited to give a talk to Fine Art students at Belfast School of Art, University of Ulster. My presentation focused on the following works:

My novel Foxy-T (Faber and Faber, 2003)
The novella Dicky Star and the Garden Rule (Forma, 2012)
Missorts, my permanent GPS-triggered soundwork for the city of Bristol and its companion volume, the novella Missorts Volume II (Situations, 2013)
My current ‘loose collaboration‘ with the artist Stuart Brisley, including my residency at King's College London and the two short fictions ‘High-Lands‘ and ‘The Holborn Cenotaph’
My latest novel Shackleton’s Man Goes South (Science Museum, 2013) and the accompanying exhibition at the Science Museum which runs until 26 April 2013.

The talk finished with a short reading from the novella Dicky Star and the Garden Rule.

Here is a video of the same reading that was shot at the Dicky Star… launch at the Free Word Centre, London on 26 April 2012, uploaded by publisher, Forma: https://vimeo.com/45698551
