Anna Barham's artwork uses video, text, print, installation and live events to set up relationships between human and non-human others. Exposing language to different bodies, forms and technologies, she creates complex feedback loops in which we witness - and contribute to - the production, erosion and modification of meaning.Listen to Anna's reading of 'Undone in the face' - a new work produced for Whitstable Biennale Journal from material she generated during a residency at St John's College Oxford in Spring 2019 . The recording is followed by a conversation with Whitstable Biennale performance curator Keira Greene, in which Anna describes her work with reading groups and voice recognition software, as well as the ideas and texts informing her work.
Podcast 62 is a recording of professor J.J. Pandit from St John's College Oxford talking about a word he coined: dysanaesthesia.
Podcast 59 is a recording of a resident seminar given by professor J.J. Pandit, St John's College Oxford when he visited Karolinska in May 2018. The topic was prediction of the difficult airway.

Turing pattern: A periodic pattern that forms in a space where the initial distribution of ‘activator’ and ‘inhibitor’ is the same. Morphogenesis: The processes during development that give rise to the form or shape of the organism or a structure Alan Turing: Alan Turing was a British mathematician and the father of modern computer science. During World War II, he broke Germany’s Enigma code used to encrypt communications. ____________________ References: Economou, A. D., Ohazama, A., Porntaveetus, T., Sharpe, P.
