This workshop presented by Dr John D'Arcy (Sonic Arts Research Centre) offered a space to explore creative approaches for mapping with voice, text and sound. John presented examples from his work in Belfast with HIVE Choir, and in Dublin with Tolka Chorus, before inviting the group to develop a new collaborative sonic performance.

Installation: From Montage to Palimpsest
image by David Rogers
The installation employed a wireless headphone network to present participants with a mediated version of the quotidian soundscape - while they explore the dockyard site. Field recordings made during pre-production are edited, processed and archived with recordings of the site from 2013. These were loaded into a Max/MSP patch generating a constantly evolving sonic palimpsest where times past and present collide, and actions, gestures, spaces are relationships are reconfigured.
