Episode description

Reunited at last! Marta and Lottie are in the same room, with the same zoom. In this episode it's all about the senses, Marta and Lottie dive head first into an ocean of taste, sound, sight, texture and smell. Lottie brought along 'My Body is a Forest' from Alycia Pirmohamed's collection Another Way to Split Water, a poem which holds the body in landscape allowing the speaker free movement through sensory recollection. Marta reads 'Orange Peels, Tectonic Shifts' from Erica Gillingham's pamphlet The Human Body is a Hive. A poem to align human bodily experience with shifting layers of the earth all tied up with a singular orange peel. This week you have a little piece of homework, so pay close attention.
