Ythancaestir: Rings on Water (in production)
Ythancaestir: Rings on Water is the second episode in a three-part moving-image work. Working in the saltmarshes and waterways of the Blackwater Estuary in Essex, ham radio is used as a tool to generate experimental audio and video recordings; contact microphones are used to record vibrations; coil receivers to record electromagnetic signals; and hydrophones to record sounds in the intertidal mud of the estuary itself. This moving image work uses the contemporary material culture of the estuary as means to reflect upon the changing politics of land use, stewardship and industrial afterlives. The film includes material from Rings on Water by Nastassja Simensky and Rebecca Lee.
Thanks to: Warren Harper, The Othona Community, Hannah Wallis, Jim Brouwer, Rebecca Lee, Angenita Teekens, Malcolm Hardy and Essex Wildlife Trust.
