'Readme' file for the collection 'Martin P Eccles PhD Sounds of Walking selected sound works'

Whilst all of the sound files contributing to works described in my thesis are available to be listened to through my website (https://martinpeccles.com) or Soundcloud (https://soundcloud.com/mpeccles) (and are detailed in Appendix Cof my thesis) I selected five works (and six sound files) as exemplars of my work for examination.

From Chapter 3, Walking Through My Senses, I have selected the 59 minute radio version of No. 2: ‘no trace’ (p. 51), and from Chapter 4, Walking time: Replicated Walking, I have selected the 120 minute work seven days in June Radiophrenia. Both contain field recordings and spoken poetry. Chapter 5, A Pattern of Islands, has three sub-sections and I have chosen one work from each. From (A)Round Islands, I have chosen two of the constituent 60 minute recordings from the 24 hour work Beàrnaraigh; I have chosen the 60 minute recordings that run from 02:00h and 14:00h. From Random (Islands), I have chosen the longest of the selected works, the four-hour version of Back Up The Long Wall: four midsummer dances for an imaginary island. Finally, from Imagined Islands Walking Contención Island, I have selected the 60 minute work A very random lockdown.
