Author of Theory of the Solitary Sailor. Gilles Grelet sails across the channel to talk with translators Amy Ireland and Robin Mackay about his ‘antiphilosophical biography’ , with topics ranging from melancholy, silence, and formulaic writing to happiness, how to exorcise a boat’s deadname, writing and twitter, and why sailors never say ‘r****t’.

With the voices of Lendl Barcelos and Angus Carlyle.

Music:
Robin Williamson (with Mat Maneri, Ale Möller, Barre Phillips), ‘Sir Patrick Spens’, from The Iron Stone (ECM, 2006).
Kassel Jaeger, ‘Exposure Scales: Tide’, from Toxic Cosmopolitanism (Editions Mego, 2014).
Debussy, La Mer (III. Dialogue du vent et de la mer).
Leo Ferré, ‘La Mélancholie’ (1964)

Extracts from the short film Un bonne manière de commencer, c’est de se donner un myth (Dojo Cinema, 2006).

Malibu - WISH WE WERE THERE Anniversary Megamix (12 10 2017 UIF Episode)

A 20-track compilation album of mythological folklore mayhem. The physical release will be in the form of limited edition custom made boosterpacks and unique artworks for each artist. Inside the booster pack you will find 20 tracks and 18 depictions of Kludde.

https://soundcloud.com/baojiaxiang2

Kludde is a shapeshifting waterdemon that walks on his hind legs and who jumps on to the backs of people wandering outside the city alone at night. When he catches you, you have to walk with him on your back until the first sunlight.

Kludde often transforms himself into a tree, small and delicate at first, but rapidly shooting into the clouds, while everything it shadows is thrown into confusion. Again, he presents himself as a black dog, running on its hind-legs, with a chain round its throat; and will spring at the throat of the first person he meets, fling him to the ground, and vanish.
