Description
Drawing on the sound archive of the University of Edinburgh’s School of Scottish Studies Archives, this exhibition explores creative reuse of the archive by a new generation of artists working in dialogue with the past. The deep listening experience features new commissions by Scotland-based artists Blair Coron, Fraser MacBeath and Carla Sayer, offering visitors a sensory journey around Scotland through the sounds of its people and places.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
