The Sound of Place: Jean Sprackland in conversation with Halla Steinunn
Halla has made site-specific sound work in many locations, from a remote valley trail to a cement works in Reykjavík. One of her current projects is a site-specific outdoor sound installation at Formby Point, which incorporates part of the text of Jean Spackland’s book ‘Strands.’ Jean and Halla will be talking about this project, and Halla’s work in and with place more generally.
