Ní mhaím go raibh aithne phearsanta agam air féin, ach tháinig mé i dteagmháil le Gabriel cúpla uair thar na blianta. An rud a sheas amach dom, áfach, ná a fhlaithiúlacht – lena chuid ama, lena chuid eolais, agus lena spéis i saothar daoine eile @joebreathnach.bsky.social

Flyer graphic. Deep red textured background. Gold circle with crow. Text in gold and white reads: Dán na Caillí: Song of the Hagwitch, Triskel Arts Centre, 25.04.26, 7.30pm.

Flyer graphic back. Text reads: Dán na Caillí is a multimedia performance featuring newly commissioned poetry about the Caillleach by Laoighseach Ní Choistealbha, Dairena Ní Chinnéide and Eithne Ní Ghallchobhair. It will also feature songs from composer, vocalist and instrumentalist Síle Denvir; and on-screen visuals from artist Margaret Lonergan. Is seanbhean í an Chailleach i miotaseolaíocht na nGael, bandia a shamhlaítear leis an talamh, leis an ngeimhreadh agus leis an saol eile, an saol iarbháis. Is minic caille uirthi, í ar leathshúil, mílítheach. Is bean feasa leis í. In Albain, tugtar Beira uirthi agus luaitear í le Leithinis Bhéara i gCo. Chorcaí. Luaitear go minic i litríocht na Gaeilge í: Mise Éire, sine mé ná an Chailleach Bhéara (an Piarsach); luaitear sa bhéaloideas í, i bhfilíocht na mbard, i saothar an Chadhnaigh agus Angela Bourke.

An Teanga Eile Bhí mé i Leitir Móir le m’athar bhí mé óg, an-óg. Bhí gaolta m’athair ag labhairt i dteanga eile bhí siad ag gáire i dteanga eile bhí siad ag ól i dteanga eile bhí siad ag tafann i dteanga eile bhí siad ag argóint i dteanga eile is nuair a tháinig an iomarca cainte faoin imirce bhí siad ag caoineadh i dteanga eile.

Catalogue cover. Title is: Manuscripts and the Mind: How we read and respond to the written word. Edited by Jill Unkel. Chester Beatty Library. Two images on cover depict scribe writing on parchment with quill.

Last chance to see this fascinating exhibition @chesterbeatty.bsky.social Ends March 1st. Really worth a visit. Came away with new insights into how much goes on for us on sensory and neurological levels when we engage with books + texts. Excellent catalogue available in shop for €12. #spéirgorm

Yes, design feels mid 30s to mid 40s.

Right-Click, Camden St, Dublin kept my 2013 MacBook Pro going until Dec 2025. Only had to change it bcos Mojave was the last OS update it could take, so Adobe CS etc couldn’t update and things overall were getting too glitchy.

1940 Irish language scif-fi book Manannán by Máiréad Ní Ghráda
It is the first Mecha Robot outside of Japan and mention of a Gravity assist in fiction. It was never republished or translated.

This is something I work on. All main events are online at lunchtime (so can be viewed anywhere in the world). Recordings generally sent to all who’ve registered after event (we do give panelists a right to veto recording, so can’t guarantee that for next couple weeks). Check locally for IRL events.
