Description

EPISODE NINE: SURVEY the 9th event organised by Holm Sound, on zoom, broadcasting from Papay to the world.

"We oversee, oversea and overland.
A reckoning of time and a reckoning of place, broadcast live from Papay, Orkney with surveyor/contributors from near at hand and far-off lands.
Holm Sound returns for a special one-off episode to survey the surveyors."

The line-up of contributors for the event:
— Amy Liptrot, writer, seaweed collector and mum
— Autumn Richardson, poet, editor and publisher
— Frances Scott, artist and maker of maps
— Amanda Thomson, artist/writer
— Gayle Brogan, sonic alchemist
— Roxane Permar, artist
— Saoirse Higgins & Jonathan Ford, SurvØY artists

'Holm Sound' sought to become a beacon during the isolated years of the pandemic. A need continues for connections to be made anew, collaborations and networks that will stand artists in good stead for the coming years ahead. Initiated by Jonathan Ford, Saoirse Higgins and fellow organisers Louise Barrington, Frances Scott and Fiona Sanderson, the platform acts as an offshoot of ØY Festival, sharing the same ambition and generosity of spirit.
"We have all become very much islands, the archipelago is what we aim for."
