Stimulus Respond

'We aim to reflect the diversity of human ingenuity and experience in both our writing and our photography. We aim to elicit a response from our readers by discussing subjects which go unnoticed by you every day - unnoticed yet on the tip of your tongue. Our goal is to explore and dissect your world using every resource available, to provoke by showing the mundane in an extraordinary way. The world made for you is pale in comparison with a world that you can make for yourself. You know the fallacy of a world without risk and a life without danger. You decide your own path and will make your own choices based on Stimulus: Response.' Latest Issue: Magic Todd Ochoa - His Illness Carrie Clanton - Scientific Magic Junko Theresa Mikuriya - On the Walls of the Caves are Shadows Tolu Ogunlesi - On Beauty James K Walker - The 23 Enigma Fashion: Emilio De La Morena, plus new editorials Poetry from Christina Lovin, Simon Barraclough and Philip Fried, amongst others Music: Liars, Les Savy Fav Art: Duncan Marquiss, Robert Kusmirovski PLUS MUCH MORE go to Stimulus Respond

Saturday 15th March 7pm - Upstairs at The Griffin 93 Leonard Street EC2A - off Great Eastern Street by The Old Blue Last Tubes Old Street/Liverpool Street London FREE entry Dockers MC: "has performed with the likes of Kate Nash and Luke Wright, and her sassy, streetwise monologues are a hit at leftfield music festivals such as Latitude. Dockers acknowledges a wide range of influences from Roald Dahl to Steven Berkoff and even Little Britain." - Times Online Clare Pollard: "born in 1978. She survived a Bolton comprehensive and three years at Cambridge to end up in London, where she is now working on a novel. She published her first collection, The Heavy Petting Zoo with Bloodaxe in 1998; won an Eric Gregory Award in 2000; and took to the road in the First Lines young poets tour in 2001. She has presented two TV documentaries, one for Channel Four with a verse commentary on the break-ups and piss-ups of Bolton's 16-year-olds." - Bloodaxe Hannah Silva: "a multi-talented poet, performer and choreographer from Devon. Her physical performances, fast-talking delivery and innovative use of cut-up text make her one of the most ambitious and entertaining poets in the country." - Times Online Kelly Marie: "I read my first book when I was an infant and quite liked it. I loved poetry when I was a kid; I had this lovely little book at home, it was blue and it had poems and pictures about pies and skies and messy bedrooms, but my favourite one was about Chocolate Cake, and I loved it. Probably because it was about chocolate cake, but still, it got me into writing, and so it began." - MySpace An eclectic set from DJ Meter Maid Guest compere is Tom Cubbin: "multi-lingual, dashing, well-travelled accordian player to the kings." - Jody Porter
