Chris Dooks eclectic Ayrtime programme of Literature, Alt-Folk (and Alasdair Roberts was so good last night), Astronomy and Theatre taking place in Ayr at the moment. Season 2 in the Autumn.

Listening to Alastair Roberts I kept thinking about Martyn Bennett and was reminded how important it is to tell those strange and brutal stories of death. 

Next is Wounded Knee.

New South Glasgow Hospitals Strategy Artists

Posted in Sited work by chrisfremantle on April 1, 2010

New South Glasgow Hospitals

Ginkgo Projects is working for Brookfield Construction, in collaboration with NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, to develop and deliver an arts strategy for the new Acute and Children’s hospitals for South Glasgow. As part of the development of the strategy we wish to recruit two artists to work with us, between May and September, to explore and develop two interest strands based on the healing environment and waymarking / orientation.

Expressions of interest are invited from artists who are willing to collaborate with us and work to develop a grounded yet innovative strategy for the new hospitals.

Deadline for submissions: 5pm 19th April. Interview date: 27th April 2010

Project brief is available to download from here in PDF format.
