A track by Shared Territories.
Made with underwater sounds.  We built hydrophones and took them to the water of Leith then Manny, our resident producer, turned them into this bit of joy.

On 6th August 2011 an Artachat discussion www.artachat.co.uk was held in the Romany town of Kirk Yetholm to discuss the effects of the recently implemented Points Based System on arts and cultural activities across our communities in the UK.

This podcast, produced by Clare Carswell, documents the event.

The track you can hear is by Canadian singer, Allison Crowe - Allison was deported from the UK and it is this track, "Immersed" that was uploaded to her website during the experience.  www.allisoncrowe.com

Let's Get Together...
Why and who are we collaborating with in Contemporary Art?
Robert Gordon University, 15th September 2011

“Let’s get together…” draws a close eye on collaboration in Contemporary Art.
 What do we really mean when we talk about collaboration? What are the social, economic, artistic and educational reasons for collaboration in Contemporary Art?  Who do we collaborate with and how do we know when these collaborations are successful?
 
This podcast documents Angus Farquhar's (Director of Public Arts charity, NVA) opening presentation where, amongst other comments, he draws upon personal experiences or when collaborations do and don't work.

"Monumental Memories"- Exploring the social consequences of temporary and permanent public art processes. 

I began this Artachat session by unpacking the tile of the session itself Monumental Memories.

By monumental I am not necessarily speaking solely of the massive, imposing or plonked public art work, but making reference more to a work that is physically enduring or physically significant.

And by memories, I am referring to the temporary public art works where something cerebral rather than physical is left.

This Artachat set out to explore the social consequences of these different types of public art along with the way they are commissioned.

In this recording curator Claudia Zeiske presents a variety of temporary projects commissioned by Deveron Arts and introduces the methodology behind her organisation.
