Ythanceaster: Atoms on the Wall
Ythanceaster: Atoms on the Wall is the first episode in a four-part moving-image work. Working in the Blackwater Estuary and Bradwell 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 Atoms on the Wall , a performance in the Chapel of St. Peter on-the-wall by The Keeling Curve and sounds 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, The Chapel of St. Peter on the Wall and Ian Bartlett.
