The weather was humid and clear, I could listen and see far. I walked and spider web strands brushed by my cheek.
Some more interventions in a great studio day. Moving forward from the recordings I created on my first day, I took some ‘tools’ with me including string and a pair of tiny scissors.
Process-led works begin to emerge without a strong preconceived outcome – much different from my usual working processes where I hold a fully-formed idea in mind before I begin. This does link with how I make though, as I have a clear image and some sound content I want to capture before I begin recording my footage. I used what objects I had brought to the studio on my first day.
I collected more sound recordings to start to think about developing a short audio release documenting my time at Outlandia through field recordings. I hope to collaborate with artists’ to work on supporting drawings and images for the CD / LP release.
