Update and actions

River Walk installation how to get involved:
Check the route here:

this was my recce:
as you can see it has a live function and pics up on tweets and pics...I am exploring this functionality
The starting idea for this I believe is Robyn's and its is rich with potential.

As it stands now the plan is to fill a room in the Commons with sound and images drawn from the walk/inspired by the route.
This could be working from wildtrack sounds to something more constructed and mixed.
It is all about WATER...water power, water for leisure but also water as in tears and sweat, the work and wealth it has created....

Could we fill the entire space with the sound of the water wheel, the rush of the weir, the squirt of water through leaking lock gates and the calm drips and gentle plash of the disused lido....?
With images and text/voice to go with?

BUT time is short...to say the least.. we need to be making a definite commitment to do this by next Wednesday.
On Thursday or Friday next week  I'll take you on the walk and  as we walk we'll agree a turnaround time but I think this needs to be very short...within a couple of days.... so keep your ideas do-able. Just taking pics as you go/see what happens and record it is a perfectly reasonable goal!
