Edi Stark sits in for Janice and talks to Mark Murphy, Gerda Stevenson and Jorn Lier Horst

Edi Stark sits in for Janice Forsyth and talks to Mark Murphy about his theatre piece Out of this World, plus Gerda Stevenson and Jorn Lier Horst discuss translating text.

Out Of This World is a new piece of theatre from world acclaimed director, writer, designer, filmmaker and choreographer Mark Murphy about a woman's descent into a medically induced coma.

Jorn Lier Horst discusses his latest book When It Grows Dark and his translator Anne Bruce explains the challenges and joys of translating the books into English. Staying in the translation vein, Gerda Stevenson talks about her first collection of poetry which has just been published in Italian with the help of translator Laura Maniero who tells of the almost impossible task of translating poetry into a foreign language without losing meaning.

Duglas T Stewart talks about his new BMX Bandits album.

Young Scottish architect-turned-artist Danny Campbell dreamt of creating a World Animal Map after finding inspiration working at a zoo and an unexpectedly successful global crowdfunding campaign helped him bring it to fruition.

Our Single Of The Week is Luxury Coach from Lonely Tourist.

The 48 Hour Film celebrated its 10th Anniversary at the weekend so Edi hears from David Hutchison, Garry Fraser and Sam Goldblatt about what it's like to take part in the challenge which involves hundreds of filmmakers racing against the clock to write, shoot and edit films in just 48 hours.
