Immersive Sound Taster Session
Spend an hour with sound artist Anna Braithwaite and Gavin Roberts of Screen South using simple plugin E4L within Ableton Live to manipulate sound around the 360° rig. No previous experience necessary to take part in this hands-on, practical session but some knowledge of using a DAW would be beneficial. All equipment will be provided but you can download the plugin (https://envelop.us/page/software) and prepare your own Ableton soundscape ahead of time if you like. Otherwise we will provide you with sound elements of the 'Pilgrimage' piece to work with. Everyone is welcome but if you want to check whether this is the right session for you please feel free to contact annabraithwaite@me.com with your questions/concerns.
Venue: Hollingworth Hall, Landmark Centre,129 High Street, Deal, CT14 6BB
Timing: You can visit the sound installation any time between 10-4pm on Sat. 12th or Sunday 13th July 2025. This session is in the same space from 4pm - 5pm on Sunday 13th July.
Pilgrimage (https://dealmusicandarts.com/events/pilgrimage-sound-installation/) is an immersive 360° sound installation which uses field recordings and improvised vocal music captured during Anna's visit to St Margaret of Antioch church en route from Deal to Dover. It reflects the experience of the modern pilgrim and highlights the loss of peace and nature from our lives. Anna is a Showcase Artist for Screen South who have kindly supported this project. https://screensouth.org/events/screen-souths-showcase-artists/
