'European Textures 2024' was a piece I created specially for the framework radio show, and was broadcast as part of episode #920 on 16/02/2025. 

The sounds in this piece were all recorded in Belgium and the Netherlands in August 2024. The original recordings I made have been sliced and equed to emphasise interesting textures, and then layered and rearranged to create new soundscapes.

The sounds include:
Cows, birds and people in a milking barn
A contact mic attached to a wind chime constructed from collected junk
Man whistling in a launderette as his washing machine enters its final spin cycle
The hubbub of breakfast in a passenger ferry restaurant
A young boy magnet fishing in a marina
A Japanese peace bell in Hasselt
Belgian campers playing bingo
Boat moorings creaking as a cargo barge passes by the village of Teroele in the Netherlands
Rain beating against a tent in Belgium
Two young boys playing pétanque in the fading daylight
Voices inside a Dutch cafeteria
Church bells on the Rue du Chêne in Brussels
The rhythms of an old mangle being operated
The drone of a passenger ferry at night whilst the passengers sleep
Contact microphones attached to a metal camping table whilst a family eats
Children screaming with joy whilst swimming
The modulated squeal of a subway train braking system
Tractors clearing goose droppings from a man-made beach

Europe Faces Increased Heat Mortality in Coming Decades

In the second part of our exploration of Odes[s]a's city center, we move through the streets on City Day. From the bars by Cathedral Square to the McDonald's on Derybasivska Street to the street art gallery on Kuznechna Street, residents are thinking about the urban histories that describe or disrupt their understanding of Odes[s]a's identity.

Odes[s]a: Origins [Витоки]

This could happen if our Artificial Intelligence developed a life of its own. Fact is, this Song was sung by AI, which makes it more sinister...

System Override

On Episode 554 of Impact Boom, Rochelle Haynes of What Works Cities discusses the vital role of data in effective urban governance, how AI can be leveraged to address systemic challenges such as climate change and housing, and why community engagement and public servant capacity building are crucial for lasting impact.

Episode 554 (2025) Rochelle Haynes On Data-Driven Leadership Powering Future Ready Cities

OK, so you recently moved into a new community.  You’re trying to avoid making too many waves too soon, so you play by what you think are the rules (though you’ve never seen a copy of the rules, and you’re not sure where you’d find them).  In your front garden, you plant the marigolds and impatiens like everybody else, but you slip in some ornamental kale, a bit of lettuce, and even a small three sisters plot.  Locals start to mutter about the “farm” over at your place.  A neighbour stops by, with his two large and ill-mannered dogs, and confronts you about your plans to get a couple of chickens for the back yard.  “Not in THIS neighbourhood,” he shouts over his shoulder as his dogs drag him away to chase a passing bicycle.  What to do?

We take a keen interest in the people we live around, and we often have definite ideas about HOW they should live.  Whether it be their lawn care, their laundry line, their plant selections, their choice of animal companions, not to mention their family reunions or their shed parties.  A friend once told me how his father slept … ummm… without the benefit of clothing…, but her mother was so worried about what the neighbours might think that she bought a pair of men’s pajamas and put them out on the wash line every week.  Just so the neighbours wouldn’t talk.  But when it comes to the growing of food, to using our collective spaces and our land and yards (back AND front) wisely, what happens if local regulations clash with self-provisioning?  That is a theme for today’s show.

Newfoundland and Labrador should be at the forefront of food production integrated into municipalities.  What, with the stories of the past and all.  But that isn’t quite the case.  At the same time as some of our small hamlets are denying simple self-provisioning actions, large cities like Paris and New York and Beijing and Reykjavik have extensive food production areas – not necessarily commercial – but which provide local food security.  How did this happen?

Today we have the second of two episodes with Nicholas Fairbridge, a researcher who works out of the Faculty of Medicine at Memorial University in St. John’s.  He is also very interested in the relationships among community health, local food production and municipal policy.  In his spare time, he has actually read all of the related development regulations of all the municipalities in Newfoundland and Labrador.  We start out with the seeming conflict between urban areas and food production.

Episode 528: The California State Rail Plan

More than 70% of CO2 emissions are being generated in cities and these cities often lack access to the financing tools necessary to bring sustainable solutions to life.

In this episode, CoMotion’s John Rossant chats with Mauricio Rodas, Former Mayor of Quito, Ecuador, and Lisa Sachs, Director, Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment to discuss the rising demand for sustainable mobility and transit solutions, and the new global Taskforce The SUMIT.

I am an experimental musician, sound artist and performer whose work explores the rural landscape of Suffolk (with a particular focus on the morphology of working class soundscapes). I also explore how conceived notions of the pastoral landscape inform and influence ideas of national identity. 
 
My work uses manipulated field recordings, homemade instruments, music concrete and modified electronics salvaged from potential landfill to create textural explorations of timbre with instinctive, chance-based arrangements that mimic the rural soundscape.

My current project is an ACE funded exploration of the changing soundscape of the village of Holbrook in Suffolk, UK. Main photo credit: Dell Atreides
