Jerwood Open Forest 2014 - Chris Watson and Iain Pate

Описание: Chris Watson discusses the project he completed with producer Iain Pate for Jerwood Open Forest 2014.

Across three evenings in late October 2014 (24, 25 and 26 October 2014) Chris Watson and Iain Pate produced a multi-channel, spatialized, sound installation featuring the remarkable, and seldom witnessed, conversations of ravens returning to roost. Hrafn; Conversations with Odin took place in Kielder Water & Forest Park in Northumberland, with one performance taking place each evening. Watson’s composition immersed the audience in sound starting with the calls of distant ravens and concluding with several birds arriving overhead. The work celebrated the return of these powerful voices to the forest, making a connection back through history and folklore to the present day.
