Great to hear that Flight will be shown in O Bheal go Beal poetry night, tonight, the 12th of January in Cork. The theme is mental health for First Fortnight, and the poem is from the prologue to my recent publication Horse-Woman. Many thanks Colm and Paul ... it is a blessing to have your support and I know you will have a great evening :) As always, wish I could be there ...

Thank. you to Cinestesya for including Nocturne in your festival this year. A New Year's Eve screening – what a special event, and I wish I could be there ... have a great festival! :))

So very honoured to be included in this festival based in Sicily this month. I feel especially pleased since the film includes a really atmospheric soundscape by leading Belgian master of sound Marc Neys and one of my neo-symbolist poems. I wish I could have been there, but my husband had surgery ... For now I will have to just imagine the beauty of that island .... 

So very pleased that Nocturne for a Lighterman is in FOTOGENIA this year, thank you so much to Chris Patch and the team. I am thrilled that this family history ekphrastic poetry film is garnering such a good response, particularly with the evocative soundscape by Marc Neys The festival just gets better and better and I am sorry I cannot be there, as it is a beautifully organised event across the city. Nocturne is on Friday 28 in the Echoes of the Vanguard section, and I will be in discussion with other filmmakers at 2 pm Mexico time that day via Instagram. BTW We are 6 hours ahead with GMT.

Really thrilled that Colm and Paul have selected Mr Sky for their regular poetry film sessions. It was made in 2018 and since they have just included Nocturne for a Lighterman in their celebrated poetry film festival I would like to mention that these films both share an artist's investigation into colour in film. Painting with film – a real joy.

I am really happy that my film Nocturne for a Lighterman (Nocturno para un lanchero) will be screened at VideoBardo Festival on the 17 November at the National Library in Buenos Aires.

Alongside other poetic presentations and the launch of the publication Imágenes del Bardo by Javier Robledo himself (huge congratulations!) there are just two videopoetry sections: Argentinian Videopoetry (11 artists) and International videopoets (19) and so I feel very honoured to be among such a small group of creative souls. I also think this works very well for the audience and the festival and wish I could be there. It is one of the most experimental and truly visually and verbally poetic festivals out there. Being invited to present at VideoBardo in 2012 remains one of my most significant videopoetry memories.

 This year there were 5 locations, one being Instants Festival in Marseille on the 19th of October. On the 25th of October, and the 3rd and the 7th of November the events took place at different locations in Argentina.
Fortunately for us, the 3rd November event is also on YouTube. Here, Javier Robledo introduces himself, actor Gabriel Espinosa and José María Martinez
reciting poetry from a small boat in the Paraná Delta, Argentina. This is a perfect, relaxing invitation to enjoy Argentinian poetry, and also practice Spanish at the same time.
