Richard Capener, founding editor of Babel Tower Notice Board Journal and an avant-garde instigator chats to Beir Bua editor Michelle Moloney King. Such an interesting convo about the white bunny falling down the rabbit hole that is what is avant-garde, who gets to use the label, are we looking for fights with lyrical poets or for enlightenment. We chat art history, movements, being poets, being editors of avant-garde journals, Irish rebel Thomas Francis Meagher (Meagher of The Sword), Transcendental Meditation, the bourgeoisie, and the bias of language. Richard Capener, has a debut pamphlet of non-fiction forthcoming from Broken Sleep Press. www.twitter.com/richardcapener3 www.thebabeltowernoticeboard.com Michelle Moloney King, editor of Beir Bua Journal, avant-garde poet and curious Tipperary mam. www.twitter.com/moloneyking www.MichelleMoloneyKing.com

I hope I made sense in this video. And when I was referring to PFOs I didn't mean that's what I'm telling people who are not accepted into an issue of Beir Bua Journal but I meant it as in that's how it feels to send them and I don't like rejecting people's work because you are all so brilliant. Being alive and putting pen to paper is brilliant....that's why I'm stopping sending them because you are enough as you are. I find if people read an issue of two they get a vibe for the journal and usually get an acceptance then. www.twitter.com/moloneyking www.MicheleMoloneyKing.com
