Hermetiske Skygger presents Alt snakker / Everything speaks

Book Launch and Concert

Alt snakker / Everything speaks: a novel masquerading as scribbles? A long poem disguised as photography? This book brings together Bård Torgersen’s photographs and asemic writing. Designed by Stener Vaagland, it marks the debut publication from Torgersen’s new publishing house, Aporia.

Concert: Noice poetry improvisations by Bård Torgersen.
