Ramsey : Through Our Eyes and Ears

room 10 ECHOES

Location: Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, England, United Kingdom

Ramsey : Through Our Eyes and Ears , is a sound walk recorded, produced, and composed by members of CRUNCH Ramsey Youth Group.

This work was created through a series of workshops co-led by Karen Frances Eng and myself. Led by Karen, the young people, aged 11-16, produced a virtual reality work based on the walk and locations that hold a special meaning to them. They also produced a tagtool animation which they also collaboratively created. There will be a link to view these at some point in the near future. I led the audio side of the work, and facilitated the recording, editing and composing of the sound work with the young people in Ramsey and at Wysing Arts Centre's recording studio.

The workshop was facilitated by Wysing Arts Centre, Bourn, Cambridgeshire in partnership with The Ramsey Neighbourhood Trust. July 2022

LOTUSLAND philip cornett & paul kindersley This work was developed with a professional development bursary from a-n more information can be found here: https://www.a-n.co.uk/blogs/lotusland-development/ the following is an excerpt of the above blog: LOTUSLAND : THE MUSICAL We began our selection process, finding a handful of videos with the most in-depth narratives and characters. We then framed them within this ‘Professional Development’ process, creating a John Dee style oracle that embodied the need to look into the future, to understand LOTUSLAND and what is out of our control. The main character, Rosey Stoner, starts off as an isolated creative entity, who dreams of the world outside, and yearns to develop through external validation. They are unaware of what they are, and their power within – they are our rosetta stone, that they are the key to their own deeper understanding of their mode of operation. We continued the filming over the week and invited artist, Mark Scott Wood of OUTPOST (Norwich), who became part of the film along with Norwich-based filmmaker, Sam Tring. We then created a mummers-influenced play using scripts from our past work. Completely improvised, this three act play documented Rosey Stoner’s journey outside their isolated creative space into an urban landscape, where they are full of enthusiasm, taken advantage of by a ‘corporate piggy’, but in the end triumphs over their exploitation becoming professionally developed and self-sufficient. Mark and Sam’s involvement directly progressed this part of the production, allowing our professional relationships to become stronger in what could have been viewed as an alternative corporate team building activity. We then took our week worth of footage and edited what is now titled LOTUSLAND : THE MUSICAL, bringing together the documentation of our development as a collaborative production unit. full film here: https://youtu.be/XaGJIQN4k1w

Sound Ride Around Rutland Water

Sound Ride Around Rutland Water

For help using the Echoes App, please visit vtsw.uk/echoes The small county of Rutland uses the Latin motto “Multum in Parvo” which means “Much in little”. This reflects the fact that Rutland is the smallest county in England by area, but it has a lot to offer in terms of natural beauty, history, and culture. This sound ride has been created so that people who are cycling around Rutland Water, can learn about the history of various points of interest around it. If you'd like to walk it, it'll still work, but you'll have long gaps between the various echoes. There's no specific start or finish point, so you can start your ride (or walk) at any point on the loop. Also, this has been created to support the Leicestershire and Rutland charity, Hope Against Cancer. If you enjoy it, please do consider making a donation to the charity by visiting www.justgiving.com/hopefoundationcancerresearch and clicking the Donate button.

For help using the Echoes App, please visit vtsw.uk/echoes The green spaces at Barnsdale are home to over 100 young trees. An orchard of apple varieties, with 60 trees, was planted in 2012 on the south-facing slope at the entrance to the car parking area. Then in 2016, a ‘nuttery’ of 50 trees was planted in a snaking line from the orchard to the entrance to Barnsdale Wood. Here you can learn about the huge variety of apples that were once common in England. If you are keen to see the differences between an almond tree, a walnut, a pecan or a pine nut, please follow this walk and also look at the pictures in the Echoes App.
