Channel Weather Symmetry

Sound artist Geraint Ffrancon has collaborated with photographer and filmmaker Nicky Brown to create a short film with music - a portrait of the weather as it rolls up the Bristol Channel from the Spring of 2011 through to the Winter 2012.

In June 2012 there will also be music created by Geraint for people to take with them to the two National Trust sites at Brean Down and Rhossili that they will be able to listen to as they explore these beautiful places.

This music will be available as sound files for download from the Local Journeys website. But for those with smartphones, a GPS version will be available, where the listener can wander the headlands between different music zones. 

WORK IN PROGRESS – If you'd like to read Geraint's work blog go to http://channelweathersymmetry.tumblr.com/ Interesting commentary on exploration and creative process with some splendid photos.

The work will not be complete until spring 2012. The project has been made possible by a grant from the Beyond Borders fund. To find out more about Beyond Borders go to www.prsformusicfoundation.com/beyondborders
