For the first few weeks of quarantine, I will be writing poems using various writing experiments that you can try at home. For instance, I’ll rip up a science book and try to write a poem from the fragments, I’ll speak and write only in questions for a day, I’ll write a “mirror” poem to an existing one, experiment with every existing form, and so on!
Experiment 12: Hearing Colours/ PURPLE
Today, for the penultimate poem of the COLOUR series, fall into the lavish, indulgent, and rich world of PURPLE (my personal favourite!)
Experiment 11: Hearing Colours / BLUE
Today, fall into the world of BLUE. You can now listen to or listen and WATCH the accompanying video I made as you listen to the cooling sounds of the ocean, the refreshing sounds of the forest, and the soothing sounds of evening.
Experiment 10: Hearing Colours / GREEN
Today, fall into the lush, verdant, and refreshing world of GREEN as I read the fourth of the COLOUR POEMS written for @becky’s graphic design dissertation - creating a colour book for the blind.
Experiment 9: Hearing Colours / YELLOW
Listen to the third of my colour poems written for @becky’s graphic design dissertation on creating a colour book for the blind. Today, close your eyes and listen to YELLOW - a succulent world of lemon zest, meringue, linden trees, and honey.
Experiment 8: Hearing Colours / ORANGE
Can you hear a colour? Sure you can! Listen to the second of my colour poems written for @becky’s graphic design dissertation on creating a colour book for the blind. Today, close your eyes and listen to ORANGE.
Experiment 7: Hearing Colours / RED
Can you hear a colour? Sure you can! Listen to the first of my colour poems written for @becky’s graphic design dissertation on creating a colour book for the blind. Today, close your eyes and listen to RED
