Produced for a
micro-radio broadcast as part of an exhibition at the Fairfield ship
yards for the Glasgow international festival of visual art in 2010 this
nostalgic documentary features interviews with people who used to work
in the shipyards or holidayed on the river Clyde. The recordings were
gathered during memory sharing workshops at the Lighthouse. The final
piece is an evocative blend of voices, found tapes, music and sound
effects. Part of the programme was originally commissioned to accompany
a film compiled of clips of amateur films from the Scottish Screen
Archive by Rob Kennedy for the exhibition, 'The Clyde - Films of the
River 1912-1971' at the Lighthouse, Glasgow.
