Dear all,
Please see below for a great opportunity.
**** Workshop opportunity for students with Sound Recordist Chris
Watson at Kew Gardens****
Monday 9th August, 9.45am-5.30pm
OR Tuesday 24th August, 9.45 – 5.30pm
Participants will have the rare opportunity to engage with Chris
Watson’s expertise in natural world sound recording. Starting off
with an introduction to Chris’ work and the recording techniques that
he uses, participants will go on to explore and record sounds within
Kew Gardens. The workshop will close with an opportunity for the
participants to listen back and analyse the sounds they have
collected.
Previous experience and a familiarity with sound recording practice is
necessary for this workshop. Please bring any sound recording
equipment you may have and would like to use, and a laptop if you wish
(hard disk recorders will be available for those that don’t have their
own). Please also bring a packed lunch (although there are places to
buy food at Kew) and suitable clothing for the outdoors, whatever the
weather may be! The workshop is limited to 15 participants, so early
registration is required.
The workshop is £11.50 plus a booking fee of £1.43 = £12.93. This
cost is to cover your entry to Kew Gardens (standard admission is
£13.50) and includes your participation in the workshop. An absolute
bargain! Please book here:

The workshops are part of the Whispering in the Leaves installation
created by Chris Watson for the Palm House at Kew Gardens. Whispering
in the Leaves is co-produced by Forma and Sound and Music, originally
commission by AV Festival 08.
