After a few weeks of reflecting on the audio that I have already completed, I was pleased to receive feedback from the Glen Finglas site ranger Gwen Raes. She is very happy with how the sound work is developing and even has a few favourites already:- Haiku 2 Lendrick Hill and Dam Loop, Poem 3 Lendrick Hill and Dam Loop, Poem 5 Lendrick Hill and Dam Loop and Royal Mail Lower Lendrick Loop.
I have some additional poems to work on that will need to be recorded. I will also need to record some additional field recordings and natural sounds that will sit underneath the spoken words.
It is written on the arched sky;
It looks out from every star.
It is the poetry of Nature;
It is that which uplifts the spirit within us
– John Ruskin, provided by Gill Walker
Bell flowers hanging down, hiding bright white
Calm, soothing little flower
Lightens up ones soul and mind
Here for a short time, they come and are gone
Little clusters unlocking natures beauty early spring
Surrounded by tree, deer and birds orchestra
Carpet of purple and blue covering woodland floor
Silent present
– Bluebell Poem, Gwen Raes
