‘Home is a Feeling’ is a sound walk that takes place across Brighton. Each location is specifically chosen to be a place where I feel most at home in a place where I do not entirely feel at peace with where I am.

Using the application ECHOS.XYZ you will be guided to each location to listen to how the project unfolds.

While each track is ultimately different from one another they later combine to create a final track in the ‘Sound Diffusion Lab’; Using motifs and themes from each track.

There is no time limit or order in which you should listen to this project, it is not designed to be an inconvenience. Instead, experience each walk when it feels right.

Along These Lines

Along These Lines

Brighton
'Along The Lines' is an immersive mobile soundwalk exploring Brighton's laundry heritage, running as listening sessions from 20th-21st October 2023. Designed and recorded by local sound artist and researcher Anna Celeste Edmonds, in collaboration with local community organisation and charity Quiet Down There (quietdownthere.co.uk), and project contributors Helen Dewhurst, Suvat Kadar, and Stella Sims. Laundry is a distinctly aural and sensory experience, we often hear people talk of the sounds, smells and feels that come with a trip to the laundrette, and many local people remember someone in their family working in laundry services. The soundwalk focuses on laundry to explore themes such as the reality of working class lives, women’s work and economic independence as well as the specific significance of laundries in Brighton in the 19th and 20th centuries providing the less glamorous but much needed ‘clean up’ for this historically busy tourist resort. Along These Lines is a walking and listening experience starting at The Open Market and then heading to Roundhill, Elm Grove, Hanover, and The Level, with 10 listening locations. This project was funded by the Heritage Lottery, and will be available for access beyond this event on annacedmonds.com and quietdownthere.co.uk. Thanks to historian and geographer Geoffrey Mead, and Gerry and Maria from Brighton and Hove Women's History Group for sharing their knowledge and time.
