Cities & Memory
May 22, 2026•150 words
This year I have become involved with an amazing project Cities & Memory. I will be releasing a new piece of work very shortly based on sounds recorded at Nord De Gare Railway Station, Paris that includes some fake birdsong piped onto one of the platforms.
Cities and Memory brings together the worlds of field recording, sound art and composition to create a new form of listening.
The project is founded around the concept of working creatively with sound to explore concepts of place and memory - and to experience the world differently through sound.
Tune into NTS Radio live tomorrow at 12pm UK time to hear a one-hour special on the Century of Sounds project!
Cities and Memory presents A Century of Sound – a trip through one hundred years of sounds from all over the world, taken from the archives of the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford.
