My new book of poems and essays “Taal” is out now with Pamenar Press @pamenarpress ♥️. Taal is a love letter to the tabla, the musical drum from India; it is also a homage to several poets & musicians and their ideas of rhythmic cycles.

"but love, relentless love". A pleasure, all of it: finding this envelope waiting in Santiago, opening the red tissue paper w galactic sticker, admiring the postcard & signature, then starting on the slim volume, seductive in its lyricism. Thank you Katrina Moinet @KMoinetwrites

And here was our first album “Mistralswagen” which featured lyrics by Gabriela Mistral from Poema de Chile and Lagar II. All of this came together in the last year, an attempt to create something different with poetry. I wonder where it will go next .

Here you can listen to the EP “Supriya”, a journey of guzheng, tabla, guitar and song, with lyrics by Gabriela Mistral and Rabindranath Tagore. “Supriya” is “well loved” in Sanskrit. A chapter of Taal @pamenarpress reflects on making this music 🙏.

Here is a photoessay by Paloma de Dinechin & Nicola Zolin, in my translation, about scientific attempts to record the Amazon rainforest soundscape to protect biodiversity & indigenous peoples. It discusses potentials & ethical concerns of this technology.
