Sunset Sound Walk

28th August 2012 at 19:00 - 21:00

Chris Watson, the internationally recognised sound recordist, has been commission by ~Flow to create an acoustic journey from the sources of the Tyne to the sea. Chris Watson led a sound walk at sunset, along stream with the Tyne as the river ebbed past Newburn and Blaydon, gathering material for the commission. The group also collected thier own sound recordings of the surrounding environment, including curlew, redshank and lapwing as well as busy urban gulls and international travelling birds on their way south from arctic latitudes.

Participants are advised to wear dark clothing and bring binoculars if possible. There will be some recording opportunity for those with recorders and Chris Watson will bring along a number of microphone set ups to plug into.
