about

Lateral was originally commissioned for ‘High-Slack-Low-Slack-High’ – a suite of audio works relating to the tidal Clyde River curated by Minty Donald for Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art in 2012.

For the festival, Lateral was created as a site-specific installation in Dixon Street, Glasgow, after which it was re-worked into this studio composition.

River water sounds, place names, info from tidal charts and signal/radio sounds serve as signposts, rooting Lateral in the real world. But the flow of water and rhythms of a vocal landscape contribute to a sense of multiple spatial and historical resonances, and to ideas of flowing with and against the current.

Selected for various international broadcasts, including: ‘AIR/EAR’ installation, Argentina; Brooklyn Acoustic Ecology Festival, curated listening hour, US; Framework Radio Estonia; Here. now. where? Saout Radio Installation,, 5th Marrakech Biennale, Morocco.
