Deconstructing Voices: a poetry and film collaboration at Liverpool John Moores University – Alicia Stubbersfield, Keith Marley, Lina Valutyte, Ian Walker, and Geoffrey Cox (University of Huddersfield). Deconstructing Voices is a multi-media performance of poetry, images and sound which are interconnected and improvised so the result is different every time it is performed. It is the result of a collaboration between Keith Marley, experimental documentary maker and Senior Lecturer in Film, and Alicia Stubbersfield, poet and Senior Lecturer in Creative Writing, together with three poetry students. This exciting partnership has transformed the poets’ experience of their own writing and, although the process is experimental, poetry on the page is the basis for each event.
A short film was created by Geoffrey Cox and Keith Marley for the conference based on and featuring Lina Valutyte's poem 'There'.
