Camilla A Nelson is an interdisciplinary artist & poet, small press publisher, creative programmer and freelance academic currently formulating her ideas into an "Experimental Ecology of Line".  Camilla has a PhD in Performance Writing from Falmouth University/Dartington College of Arts (2012).

She is founding editor of Singing Apple Press, a Visiting Research Fellow at Bath Spa University and member of the PLACE Collective.

 Camilla has published three poetry collections with Knives Forks & Spoons, Contraband Books and Guillemot Press. Her fourth, A Mending Piece (in four parts), will be published by KFS later this year.

Rhys Trimble was born in Zambia in 1977. He is a bilingual poet, text artist, performer, drummer, editor, critic, collaborator, shaman, staff-wielder and shoutyman based in Wales.
