JUST PASSING THROUGH
“I’m speaking to you from the present. And the past, of which I know a lot about.
That’s what happens when five generations of ravens live together.
One hundred years of same, but different, carrion in a roost of sticky mud and fur, rain-wet bark and grasses. Specks of rubbish too.
I’m the only one here now. Richer pickings at the tower you see, but you gotta work for them.”
A beautifully surreal and soothing site specific audio experience, unfolding in one of the City of London’s best kept secret gardens.
Made in response to the location and inspired by those Dinah and Michelle met in Postman’s Park, it blends original composition, binaural sound design, poetic imagery, and the enigmatic prophecy of a raven.
This feathered fiction is a solo audio experience, with a digital guide. It lasts 20 min and is accessible through headphones and a smartphone.
