Teasels and Mazes! two of my favourite things. Been playing with the sound of teasels all winter. They have been an essential ingredient in my compositions, sound workshops and performance
Here’s some binaural recordings in case you have headphones.
The WONDERFUL teasel maze is on @highashfarm near Norwich a place which gives me hope for the future of farming. #fieldrecording #binaural #teasel #audiovisual #psychogeography
Pilgrimage!
day 4
Stiffkey to Walsingham
via Fiddlers Hill and Warham Henge
A pilgrimage of listening, ritual and field recording. the old places, the edgelands, the liminal spaces. Medieval and Neolithic stopping places.
I saw ‘tumulus’ on the map and made a detour to Fiddlers Hill. What a special place!
I cant wait to unpack all the recordings of this adventure into a larger substantial sound work, but it was so great to be able to make these little vignettes each day on the fly using audio and video gathered on my journey.

Pilgrimage!
days 2&3
so wonderful to be tracing this ancient line shortly before equinox.
2: Mundesley to Sheringham - Trimingham rood screen saints, sky scanners
3: Sheringham to Stiffkey - the stunning Salthouse church.
A pilgrimage of listening, ritual and field recording in the old places, the edgelands, the liminal spaces.
i loved making these audiovisual shorts each day using only my phone.
i used @lightbeamapps goVJ for visuals. GoVJ is a tenth of the price and a hundred times the fun of laptop based apps.
also @koalasampler - the gift that keeps on giving!

Equinox ritual on Mundesley beach with 3 of my beautiful conches!
Cassis cornuta, the horned helmet shell
Lambis lambis, the spider conch
Alger gigas, the queen conch
These conches were created from the body of an incredible, fingery-eyed mollusc. Calcification, resonant hardness from flexible softness.
all three species have been hunted to near extinction.
i laid them in the sea, we remembered their mollusc makers.

layering special times (new moon, full moon, eclipse) backwards and forwards onto each other. a kind of sonic distillation of spacetime :)
