SUMMARY:Fellfoot Forward Field recording and environmental listening workshop
DESCRIPTION:Please note: this workshop is now full. \nJoin internationally renowned sound artists\, Chris Watson and Tim Shaw\, on a practical field recording workshop to collect sounds of nature and wildlife from the Fellfoot Forward scheme area. \nThis very special event will take place on high moorland near Talkin and Forest Head. Exact location here. Please note we will provide a different meeting point location. \nActivities will include sound walking\, recording techniques\, microphone placement\, environmental listening\, and extended field recording approaches. Through different recording activities the artists will collect the diverse sounds from the different ecologies of this area. Listeners will be able to explore using air pressure microphones\, hydrophones\, contact microphones\, parabolic reflectors\, bat detectors\, and geophones. \nParticipants will gain hands-on experience of the craft of field recording\, location sound\, and new ways of listening to our shared sound-scapes. It will include an afternoon/evening workshop on Thursday 4 May\, starting at 2pm\, and a (very) early morning dawn chorus workshop Friday 5 May\, ending 9am. \nBreakfast will be provided to all participants following the dawn chorus workshop on Friday 5 May. If you require overnight accommodation between Thursday 4 and Friday 5 May\, we will be able to provide a nearby community hall or similar (in/near Talkin or Castle Carrock)\, at no extra cost. You will be required to bring your own bedding\, sleeping bag/mat etc. \nNo previous experience is required. Bring your own recording equipment\, if you have it. \nWe are able to offer this event at a heavily reduced rate (£20) through project funding. Places will be prioritised for artists and practitioners based in the Fellfoot Forward scheme area. \nItinerary:\nThursday 4th May \n2pm – Participants arrive at location (to be confirmed) for intro and demonstrations\n4pm – All participants take a mini bus to the main location for a sound walk\n6pm – Dusk recording in secondary location\n8pm – Break\, return to base.

Presenting work through performances\, installations and sound walks\, Tim is interested in how affective environments can be constructed or explored using a diverse range of techniques and technologies. Working with field recordings\, electronics\, video\, synthesis\, sound objects\, self-made hardware and DIY software his practice creatively appropriates communication technologies to explore how these devices change the way we experience the world. He presents work in galleries\, forests\, warehouses\, caves\, public spaces\, festivals\, museums\, through residencies and cultural events both nationally and internationally.
