Shadow-walks (at home) with Catherine Clover, Australia - Viv Corringham (excerpt) out March 23 by Flaming Pines published on 2021-03-09T08:36:30Z Shadow-walks (at home) In my long-term (almost 20 year) project Shadow-walks, I walk with local inhabitants of places on their special walks. Then I repeat the route alone, listening for the memory of that walk and singing my response. In a sense Shadow-walks is an attempt to make a person’s traces, their shadow, audible through my singing, improvising voice. During the Covid 19 pandemic it became impossible to walk with people because of lockdowns and travel restrictions, so I adapted the project into Shadow-walks (at home). I ask volunteers to send me recorded descriptions of their special walks. These can be walks they remember, daily walks they wish they could still do, or walks they can take alone but not with me. My vocals in Shadow-walks (at home) respond to how I imagine the walk while listening to people’s verbal descriptions. ---------------- About Viv Corringham Viv Corringham is a US based British vocalist, composer and sound artist.
