Ear of the Edgeland Ep.2 Breydonsound

Ear of the Edgeland Ep.2 / Breydonsound.

On the 7th May we visited a bird hide overlooking a resplendent Breydon Water to record author and curator, Sarah Lowndes in conversation with Yarmouth-based painter, Bruer Tidman.

The conversation is punctuated with glorious music from artist and musician, Jason Parr (whose sound sculpture 'Vibrational Smile Generator' was shown at last years Yarmonics). It also includes field recordings of Breydon Water, Burgh Castle and from under Breydon bridge, made by Richard Fair and Oliver Payne.

In contrast to Broadsound, the second episode in this series looks more toward the social history of Breydon Water and Great Yarmouth, through personal stories and ideas around artists working in rural environments.

Breydonsound was generously funded by Water, Mills and Marshes: the Broads Landscape Partnership and produced in partnership with originalprojects;

Breydonsound is the second in a series of podcasts taking an explorative and alternative look at the county of Norfolk. This second episode features Gorleston based painter, Bruer Tidman in conversation with artist and writer, Sarah Lowndes in a bird hide overlooking Breydon Water. The first part of Breydonsound focuses on the social history of the area, through stories and ideas emerging from Bruer's time spent living in and around Yarmouth, before the pair discuss the inherent magic and appeal of this landscape and the broads more widely. Breydonsound features a recording of 'Goodbye Dad' by Yarmouth based, Jason Parr (recorded in new Yarmouth galelry, Ex Marks the Spot) and a piece taken from his most recent release 'Bubble and Squeak'. Ear of the Edgeland Ep.2 / Breydonsound was produced by Oliver Payne for the Norfolk and Norwich Sonic Arts Collective in partnership with originalprojects;. Field Recordings of Burgh Castle made by Richard Fair, recordings from under Breydon flyover made by Oliver Payne. We are extremely grateful to the Broads Landscape Partnership's 'Water, Mills and Marshes' project for funding this project.
