Hearnshaw's project is called "Blackdown voices" - a
portrait in sound of life in the Blackdown Hills, using
words, 'soundscapes', and new music.
They plan to interview and
record people who live in the Blackdown Hills, as well as
capturing soundscapes from the area that have different
acoustic qualities. Editing and setting the recordings to
original music to produce a 35 minute CD.
