Bedtime Story Conservatory
A project consisting of a mailing list, to which I send out audio recordings of myself reading interested texts, poems, short stories and other bits and bobs I have gotten excited about. Alongside the reading is often some visual material, thoughts, feelings and reflections. The project, beginning in late March 2020, is on-going. Below is the accumulation of all emails and readings I have sent out since the project began. In building this archive, the material included morphs together to form some sort of larger image or feeling, generates abstract links thematically and visually, and in turn gives rise to meaning.
I can only hope, in this time especially, that these emails act as a moment of warmth, clarity, engagement or escape for the receiver.
An email is sent out every day.
