Audio slideshow on BBC Radio 4 website

I was recently very lucky to have the opportunity to make an audio slideshow to accompany the first episode of new BBC Radio 4 series The Global Reach.

The slideshow is available to watch online here, but unfortunately due to some technical issues the image quality is not the best it could be, so I’d suggest that it’s best viewed off full-screen mode.

The photographs and audio are courtesy of the very talented Jane Labous.

Barbican

My friend Raimund gave me a tour of the Barbican. Here is the result.

The Comfort of Strangers

This is the 5-minute feature that I made for the Creative Radio strand of my MA programme at Goldsmiths College, University of London.

The piece features two anonymous people talking about their experience of counselling, and also includes quotations from Carl R. Rogers, the founding father of counselling, and the song ‘We Have a Map of the Piano’ by Icelandic band múm.

Extracts from this piece were featured on the BBC Radio 4 programme Short Cuts in January 2012.

Ridley’s

For the month of September 2011, Ridley’s pop-up restaurant served lunch and dinner from an empty corner on Ridley Road Market, Dalston, East London.

Instead of paying with money, diners ‘bought’ their meal with produce purchased from the market, which the Ridley’s chefs would then use to cook the next day’s meals.

This film follows two Ridley’s diners, who had never been to the market before.
