i am sound

I am currently working on a sound design for a fantastic play by Tim Nunn entitled “Formel” for his theatre company Reeling & Writhing.

The story is set on an island on the West Coast of Scotland and incorporates some beautiful field recordings made by Tim during his recent visit to Islay.

“‘Formel’ traces the complex tensions around the eagles of Scotland through the passion and wonder felt for them by this young woman, and the love she has for three men in her life…. a tragic love story told through the skies, clifftops and beaches of the West cost of Scotland.”

The performance features detailed and layered soundscapes reproduced on a series of carefully positioned speakers, creating a rich language of sound.

Performed in an intimate space in very low lighting the audience will experience a show where their sense of space and location is often suggested by what they hear as opposed to what they see.

Formel will have two preview performances at Platform on Thurs 20th and Fri 21st of January.
