Tricky Hat Productions

From January to July 2021, Tricky Hat worked with people living in Partick East and Kelvindale to gather their tales and memories of the area and transform this into an audio journey. Round Our Place is an exploration of places filled with voices, visions, dreams and memories. We invite you to plug in your headphones and lose yourself in these sounds and stories as you follow the route. Pick up a free map from The Alchemy Experiment,157 Byres Road. Location 1 on the route and enjoy the walk. This was created as part of the Creative Communities: Artists in Residence is a citywide project for Glasgow, employing an artist in residence for every community.

Round Our Place 2023 is a Sound Walk created by Tricky Hat, in collaboration with groups and individuals who live and work in the North West area of Glasgow. From November 2023 to August 2023 we worked on this phase of Round Our Place as part of Glasgow Life: Artists in Communities and 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships. Collected stories of love, challenges and triumphs, favourite places, water and communities standing up for what they believe in. Take a pair of earphones and your smartphone, turn on your GPS, and follow the route.

Round Our Place Ravenscraig is a creative Soundwalk project developed with and by the people of North Lanarkshire who live in the area of the former Ravenscraig Steelworks. This project explores the transformation of this post-industrial landscape through voices, memories, and dreams of the future. Last September, local amateur botanist Hamshya Rajkumar and Tricky Hat hosted walking workshops, encouraging participants to engage with Ravenscraig's unique plant and wildlife while sharing personal stories and reflections on what the land means to them as it enters a new phase of regeneration. Led by Tricky Hat Associate Digital Artist Kim Beveridge, who grew up in North Lanarkshire, Round Our Place Ravenscraig captures the connections between people and place by gathering stories that map the past, present, and possible futures of Ravenscraig. Round Our Place Ravenscraig is a Tricky Hat Productions project, funded by Creative Scotland and developed in partnership with North Lanarkshire Council, the local Duke of Edinburgh program, and Measuring Humanity at the University of Edinburgh.
