The first of a series of free wheeling conversations between academics, artists and communication experts on what words mean in the glut of postmodern labels that wash themselves on the shores of our cybered up existences.
Are words, terms and political nomenclatures simply a workaround to conceal genuine engagement with the hard questions or do their origins belie a sincere attempt to wrest control of reality and shape it into one's own image- Sit back and let the conversation wash over you!

The first of a series of podcasts, the ART IN LIFE series by JA International Theatre where we explore the subtle mystifications through which the written and spoken words in poetry, verse, prose or drama and movies affect our lives, inform our world views and finally by giving us a language to describe our universe, help build it.  This series will consist of freewheeling interviews with artists on how words have impacted them at critical moments of their life. 
In this first podcast,  we interview Dan Cotterall, a Lisbon based Franco-New Zealander actor,  writer and theater manager on the inimitable influence of Ted Hughes on his life, thoughts and viewpoints.

The second of JA International Theatre's Art-In-Life series, this session features a freewheeling podcast conversation with the poet Chiara Chrisafulli about the surreal topicality of that immaculate chronicler of the past, the Alexandrian poet, Constantine Cavafy and  the high mistress of observed meanings of materiality- Jane Hirshfield

Computation and thought Part I

A irreverent recasting of an imagined monologue between the titular character in Anton Chekov's deceptively Gothic 'The Black Monk' and its over keen protagonist, channeling the core otherworldliness and the heady lure of a no-comebacks deep dive into the ravines at the edge of consciousness.

Dark Of The Moon:The Black Monk Himself
