Description

In this episode, Morag chats to Rachel Holmes about her research to kick off our theme on senses. Rachel Holmes is a practicing artist and writer currently completing her doctorate project The Language of Birds at Kingston School of Art, supervised by Professor Scott Wilson. Influenced by the work of Georges Bataille, Silvia Federici, Eduardo Kohn and Dale Pendell, The Language of Birds is interested in developing a theory of luck or chance, through which the intelligence of the Other (as nature) expresses itself; historically through ritual practice. In this podcast she sets the context for her research by describing the worldview of "living myth" which was demonized during the medieval witch hunt, laying the foundations for transatlantic slavery, modern capitalism and our contemporary state of disenchantment.www.racheladelineholmes.comIG: @jaguar_birdCover art: "Hazel Grove", textile work by Rachel Holmes referring to a vision-fast undertaken in Donegal, Ireland. --- Episode transcript: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Jn5T_EdDVZWeBmNc-32GdBcU2TBmI0od/view?usp=sharing ---If you would be interested to share your research with us, please do get in touch at technecaster@gmail.com
