I made the location recordings for this beautiful work by Lucy Crouch and Katherine Payne, commissioned by the Folkstone Fringe festival;
Between Two Lights documents the time when light from the sun begins to take over from the lighthouse’s beam. Recorded from night to dawn this film captures the subtleties of time passing. The accompanying sound transmits Morse code using the field recordings from the site where this lighthouse once stood. The transcript of the text alludes to an infinite potential, the sound of the first moment of a new day. Hope is a central idea in this work based in Lowestoft, the most easterly point in the UK, as hope renews each day on the rising of the sun.
