Mind Your Ears #1

Workshop #1 with Irish charity Mind Yourself was great fun last week! 5 participants got to grips brilliantly with Audacity, each person creating a small cut-up edit of one of our Sound Stories. 

After an initial listening session to one of the stories we found this YouTube video, introducing William Burroughs Cut Up Technique, as a nice way to move past editors block and jump into some quite effective sound work. 

Next week we will be working on one person's story, each editor employing the Cut Up technique on a section of the entire recording. This will allow us to collectively re-work an entire sound story and let the randomness of a cut up technique re tell the story's for us.
