Horizons Are Important

'Standing, for the second time in my life, on the platform of Edale train station in the heart of the Peak District, I hoped that walking all the way to Scotland might make me a Walking Artist.'

Sound walk
This post describes the experience of exploring an unknown area through physical engagement with natural elements such as streams, fallen trees, and undergrowth. It combines imagery and field recordings with sounds by artist Michael Fairfax, creating an unsettling atmosphere imbued with a sense of fear.

walking an unknown area crossing streams scrambling slipping under fallen trees lying prone ground level crawling along warm earth peering undergrowth shades of brown black green flash of orange bright green moss push fingers in earthy smell breath deep fungus tangle of branches stones earth twigs leaves rustling scattered seeds shoots emerging roots creeping under ground – listen ear the ground ground to ear Combining images and field recordings with sounds created by artist Michael Fairfax, provides a unsettling background – fear hovers

driftsinging

Drawing with (vocal) sound in response to place while passing through place. Driftsinging borrows from the Situationist Drift, and Baudelaire’s flâneur. Driftsinging also relates to the process of ‘sounding,’ the sonic measuring of distance and depth that locates position in place and ‘echo location’, the examination of place through sonic reflection and refraction, resonance and echo.
