GJJ Interview for NME

Lots of TLAs here ...

Had the pleasure of interviewing Gary James Joynes (AKA Clinker), multidisciplinary artist and musician, for the New Music Edmonton podcast "The NO Normal" recently.

It was a really lovely opportunity to talk to Gary about his work - both new and older - and catch up with him about some ideas and influences we share in our respective practices.

The No Normal podcast is now available on Soundcloud and wherever else podcasts are available.

The first episode of 2021 features some great discussions and music. Ian Crutchley, New Music Edmonton Artistic Director, discusses a wide range of topics with the incoming Artistic Directors of New Works Calgary, Rebecca Bruton and Lesley Hinger. They also share some of their own music with us. The second part of this episode is the interview/conversation between me and Gary. There's also a sneak peak of some of Gary's forthcoming work, and discussion of his new piece Sonic Suns (((GENESIS))) commissioned by New Music Edmonton, and available on Vimeo.

Give it a listen - The No Normal Podcast has had a great line up so far - lots of interesting ideas and projects!

Thanks to New Music Edmonton for the opportunity!
