4.15pm-5.30pm Memory, Orality and the Local: Francoist Repression in Rural Spain
Dr Ruth Sanz Sabido (CCCU)
Dr Chris Pallant, a member of the School of Media, Art and Design since 2010, has been busy working on two book publications. To ensure the scholarly rigour of these works, Dr Pallant undertook an extended period of primary research, visiting archives in the United States (the Margaret Herrick Library in Los Angeles and the Bobst Library in New York), France (the Cinémathèque Française), Germany (the Deutsche Kinemathek), and in the UK (the British Film Institute, The Ray & Diana Harryhausen Foundation, and the London Film Museum), to name but a few. Extensive interviews were also conducted with practitioners from a range of media backgrounds. Much of this activity was made possible by funding received from the British Academy.
Tree Radio Installation (Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Bretton, Wakefield WF4 4LG)
Radio Arts researcher and artist Magz Hall has recently finished a summer residency at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) where she has produced a new sound installation, Tree Radio.
Tree Radio has transformed an oak tree at the Sculpture Park into a micro radio station. A transmitter embedded into the tree relays as fluctuating sound the tree’s reactions to light, via sensors on the tree and probes in the tree, which also relay its water levels as electronic tones. Visitors at YSP can pick up the tree’s transmissions on their personal FM devices, such as their phones, if they are standing next to or near the tree.
