A Jamali Rad on Writing No Signal No Noise

A Jamali Rad chats with The Miramichi Reader about the inspiration that led to them writing their latest genre-defying collection, No Signal No Noise. Rad says, “I spent a year reading and trying to find a way to write this book, until I realized it was actually a series of books. I realized that in order to understand the idea of the “binary,” I really had to understand the coming-into-being of Zero, that which really makes the binary possible. So I started on trying to write a new book, which would become the first in the series, a book dedicated to the story of Zero.”
