With great pleasure, Hem Press can announce a new release from its sound poetry imprint, Angry Starlings, forthcoming August 2023.
Incrementally
by Penn Kemp
Collecting sound poetry over a fifty year career, Penn Kemp’s Incrementally showcases her vocal acrobatics. Weaving linguistic patterns built from single syllables, Kemp invites listeners to bathe in chance associations, rhythms and repetitions. Incrementally is warm hearted, participatory in its meaning making, and unabashedly fun.
Speaking of joyful noises, me and Maria created a playlist for her joint book launch a fortnight ago. As these things sometimes pan out, we didn’t get around to using it so now I share it with you here, over Spotify. I chose tracks 1 - 13; she chose tracks 14 - 29.
Stay safe and, as ever, big gratitude to all of you.
