A short film made along a ley line as part of a residency at Braziers Park, Oxfordshire. The film-makers were taught to dowse by Braziers Park resident and Ley lines expert, Catherine Howie. They proceeded to dowse a line through the house and out into the landscape for 1km each way, from the fulcrum point of where the line met other lines, inside the house. The audio is an interview with Catherine Howie about the meaning and powers of Ley lines, and her methodologies for discovering and interpreting them. A collaborative work with Steven Eastwood and Mia Taylor.
