‘I am concerned with the power of sound! and what it can do to the body and the mind,’ wrote composer Pauline Oliveros. In the body, histories and politics come together with sound and listening, memory and feeling. Bodies of Sound offers a resonant exploration of feminist sonic cultures and radical listening in over fifty contributions. In this book of echoes, a variety of forms – from essays to text scores to art, fiction and memoir – speak across gender, ways of knowing, witnessing, sounding and voicing, translation, displacement, violence and peace.

@ascentale @pete @bikenite #BikeNite A5: There seem quite some small cargobike manufacturers in #Zurich: flinccycles.com/ and monopole.cc/ (although their bikes are assembled in France) come to my mind as I like both designs.

For recumbents there is wolfundwolf.ch/ near Basel and Fateba (longbike.ch/) in Winterthur, all within an hour of car or train travel. I have a Fateba from the late 90s.

portus-cycles.de/ manufactures steel frames ca. 100km away.

I'm loving the 'will it/won't it germinate' thing at the moment. So I have a greenhouse which I can just about keep above freezing (it's not too cold in #Jersey) with a single tube heater that goes on a bit in cold weather, and a massive grow lamp.

These also definitely help the germination.

But I also work overseas (in #Zurich in fact) and get home 1 weekend in 2 normally. So that means I get the fortnightly surprise of what-the-fuck-is-going-on twice a month!
