I was away for half of April in Canada for the History, Memory, Performance conference at the University of Ottawa, and before that I was teaching and marking, so I've not had much time. This is a quick 'Links to Stuff' post before I get back to posting (hopefully) more often.
While I was away AL Kennedy's Sunday Feature on Art and Madness was broadcast on Radio 3 on Sunday 22nd April. I've yet to listen to it yet, but it is available on iplayer.
On Tuesday night Peter Falconer and I went to see Einstein on the Beach at the Barbican. We managed not to get lost in the Barbican (which is like a modernist Alice in Wonderland) and sat through the entire 5 hours (it has no interval). One of the most amazing things I have ever seen on stage. The various videos of it on the web do not do it justice - it is definitely one of those productions where you had to be there. It runs at the Barbican until 13th May.

Links to Stuff IV
Regular readers will know how much I like AL Kennedy's work, and her new radio play That I Should Rise was broadcast on BBC Radio 3's Saturday night drama slot The Wire on Saturday night. It is available until the weekend on BBC iplayer.
The November/December 2011 edition of Intelligent Life magazine published this article about handwriting.
There are currently two exhibitions running in London about Antarctica The Heart of the Great Alone at the Queen's Galleries at Buckingham Palace and Scott's Last Expedition at the Natural History Museum.

Links to Stuff III
Congratulations to Peter Falconer over at A Song A Week 2011! for writing and recording 52 songs in 52 weeks.
Going Dark at the Young Vic looks like it will be great - I'm going in early March because it is one of the things my students have to go to for the course I teach this term.
Some of BBC Radio 3's New Generation Thinker's are broadcasting on The Essay this week.

Links to stuff
I'm going to try to blog more, so if I can't write a proper blog my compromise is going to be to post some links to interesting things (things which I think are interesting and hope you will too).
Quick reminder about my friend Peter Falconer's project to write A Song A Week in 2011. He has ten songs left to write, record and produce - and there aren't ten weeks of the year left so if you haven't already take a look at the SAW2011 blog and give him a comment or two to encourage him, and a few pounds for the charity pot if you can.
High Arctic exhibition at the National Maritime Museum - is a rather extraordinary exhibition conceived by Matt Clark of United Visual Artists after he went on the 2010 Cape Farewell High Arctic expedition. The blogs by the people who went on the expedition can be found here.
BBC Radio 3's Free Thinking Festival is currently happening in Gateshead. Radio 3 broadcast various lectures and events and you can catch up on the iplayer.
And for something absurd and hilarious: French and Saunders Hungarian Madonna Interview (with thanks to Mr Falconer for sending me this link).
