Show Notes

From scheme water, pipelines and a countryside in the grip of drought – the water in Tracy Ryan's new collection is a many-sided metaphor. In this podcast she talks to Kellie Eighteen, an English and Cultural Studies student at Edith Cowan University, whose home on the semirural outskirts of Perth gave her many points of commonality with the award-winning Western Australian poet. The podcast features 'Water Dripping Echo' by mlprovideos, http://www.mlsprovideos.com/, 'Soundscape: Dripping Water' by Electroviolence and '05913 Swimming loop' by FxProSound, http://www.fxprosound.com. Additional sound editing by Katie McAllister.
