Event overview
Goldsmiths Literature Seminar
In this paper, Francis Gilbert and Rick Pushinsky will discuss their collaborative project to make a new version of William Blake’s Songs of Innocence and Experience.
Francis, who comes from a perspective of creative writing, and Rick who is a photographer, found a connection with Blake’s own merging of words and image. In this talk Francis will explore how and why Blake’s work has grown in relevance because of its connections with new theories of learning and art, and how this connects with his own PhD research. Some brief tasters of the videos and music which Francis has developed as tools for teaching Blake's work will be shown. Rick will talk about how and why he has devoted so much time to taking photographs to illustrate Blake’s ideas and words. He will also introduce a slideshow of some of the photographs which will be included in this new version of Blake's Songs of Innocence and Experience. Some of these photographs can be found here: http://www.pushinsky.com/projectsC/index.shtml.
