Event overview
Multi-speaker sound and audiovisual installations exploring the relationship between the voice and home, created by final year BMus students Sam Bland & Joy Stacey.
In one of the final events of Pure Gold, this event will be showcasing two projects that combine interviews, field recordings and visuals.
Sam’s piece explores the connection between the voice and the home and shelter and is imagined by a series of interviews and field recordings that link to his interviews.
Joy Stacey's piece also uses a mixture of interviews and field recordings and is an audiovisual piece looking at parades in Belfast.
Never Never Land. By Joy Stacey and Julia Brown
This audiovisual work, that has already been installed at the Barbican and St James Hatcham Church showcases an electronic soundtrack combined with prominent visuals of cultural identity of Northern Ireland. Listen to manipulated voices and stories from women who have grown up in a male dominated, divided and traumatised political environment.
A film which immerses you into the celebrations on the 11th and 12th of July, of bonfires, bands, flags and theatrical costume. Exploring stereotypes of Catholic and Protestant, territory and divided communities.

Home, a sound exploration. By Sam Bland
In a time of deep austerity, lack of affordable housing and a refugee ‘crises’, home becomes an ever more political and pressing issue in our society.
This multi-speaker sound installation, explores the connections and distinctions of people’s relationships to the home and shelter. The piece combines multiple interviews with recordings and aims to draw links between the personal qualities of the voice and the concept of home.
