Rain drops keep falling on my tapehead

On Sunday I managed to capture the rain as it leaked into the factory in several places. Reviewing the results on the bank holiday Monday it sounds so musical when looped. A very percussive rhythm track it is indeed. I have been arranging this into a soundscape.

Being at the Factory as part of Norfolk Open Studios has been very interesting for me over these last two weeks. The final weekend next week.

While my television gently weeps...

The mesage is in a bottle...yeah...

Tom and Muriel

People looking at the exhibition of both Tom and Muriel Mallin work at the Factory Studios.


Bird Recordings

The bird recordings I made for the Soundbooth were a success. Really added something to the Factory as the wave forms permeated through the surrounding gallery space. Which also may explain the bird feathers in the previous post prehaps? So prehaps this confused them.


Market Stall

Everything bar the T shirt to remind you of your visit.

The white feathers

A slight dusting of white bird feathers appeared
from nowhere outside studio 25.

It came from above

Great Yarmouth harbours a secret about the slave trade

Yarmouth harbour

As part of the filming of the events of Black History Month I recorded Dr Richard Maguire excellent talk at the Time and Tide museum. One thing that really struck home to me was although the ports of the west of the country such as Liverpool and Bristol involvement with the slave trade are well documented. The eastern ports such as Yarmouth and Kings Lynn were also involved in the early period of the trade.

So indeed Slave ships in Great Yarmouth did exist.

Prehaps that should be remembered at the next years Yarmouth Maritime festival?
