Sound affects our experience of place. Would this still be the case in such an overpowering landscape as the beach at Annat? I was waiting for a fine day but one didn't come so exposed to driving rain I took my ghetto blaster down to the beach and videoed and sound recorded myself playing different types of music on the beach. Music as appose to sound sets up very definite experiences of duration, and I wanted to counteract this in the video and sound recordings by drawing the viewer back to the real time the experiment was happening in. The rain and wind also did this very well and in fact the piece changed into being about something else which I still haven't put my finger on.
