Around this time last year, the Center for Deep Listening launched A Year of Deep Listening, a call for Deep Listening scores in homage to Pauline Oliveros. I decided to take part, and eventually sent in not one, but ten scores - and then I just kept writing more. (Rather predictably in my case, all of them turned out to be soundwalking scores). I was also very pleased when one of them - Ariadne Soundwalk - was selected for A Year of Deep Listening.

Memory Soundwalk Think of a place you remember well, but that you know for certain no longer exists. Walk to a location near where that place used to be. Ask a passerby for directions to that place. Listen/record/think about the replies you receive
Following Footsteps (Drift) Choose a starting point. Start recording. Don't move. Listen. Close your eyes if you find it helps. Don't move until you hear footsteps nearby. Follow the footsteps. Lose them. Wander around for a while. Choose another starting point. Don't move. Listen. Don't move until you hear footsteps nearby.
Things You Didn't Hear At the end of a soundwalk, think back about all the things you saw, and expected to hear, but failed to. Make a list. Organise the sounds in a sequence. Go out again, this time listening out for these specific sounds. Try to organise your soundwalk according to the sequence you established.

Sometimes, is nerdy work.😁 With my recorder, I concentrate so much on to a landscape. Our neighbours' dog howled an intro for a panel discussion with gardening animals. Birds sang and Bilbo was slurping from muddy puddles. And then I didn't understand why the bright yellow colza field just didn't want to sound yellow.😂 https://munsell.com/color-blog/paper-art-storytelling-interview-petra-van-cronenburg/

I've never understood why Private Collection by Jon & was not as well regarded as Short Stories or The Frinds of Mr. Cairo
