stray




in late 2007 Dunedin based painter, musician and video artist Kim Pieters set my poem stray (beneath the books of winter) to a series of sepia toned moving digital images of landscapes filmed along the road to her former residence at Purakanui, just outside Port Chalmers, Dunedin. The video-poem that resulted was named Stray. Jim Currin's Ray Off project provided the soundtrack, specifically the first two songs from the album Ghost Wolf of Thunder Mountain, released on his label United Fairy Moons.

poem originally published in Moria, vol 7, issue 2, 2004.
