Lights Out Listening in Larbert

Lights Out Listening with FDAMH (Falkirk and District Association for Mental Health)

A one-off listening event in complete darkness...

Part of the Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival

Forth Valley Royal Hospital, Larbert, Tuesday 16th October 2012, 4-5pm, Lecture Theatre, Learning Centre, 3rd floor.

Mark Vernon is currently artist in residence at NHS Forth Valley. Over the past six months he has worked with members of FDAMH’s arts and media group to create and record a series of sound works, stories and ‘radio poems’ combining voice, music and sound effects. Many members of the group have got to grips with digital sound recorders and have recorded their own voices, music or sound effects for their productions. This programme is a small selection from the work recorded so far. There are future plans for a dedicated audio blog and a radio programme presented and put together by media group members which will be broadcast on Radio Royal, Forth Valley Royal’s very own hospital radio station. Everyone is welcome to come along to this free event and there will be refreshments served afterwards - so please join us for this unique listening opportunity!
