Listening to Community
<p>To conclude our Home Truths series, we are delighted to devote this episode to the voices of Eastville residents, who were interviewed and recorded by D-M Withers during the first Covid-19 lockdown almost exactly one year ago. These residents have taken the story of their community - their Home Truths - into their own hands.<br/><br/>Local people talk about what they got up to during the first lockdown and their hopes and fears for the future, intermixed with original music and sound recordings of bird song and local landscapes. <br/><br/>D-M said: "A few months into the pandemic I started to record interviews with people on my street. Like many people around the country, the lockdown created an opportunity to get to know my neighbours better. I wanted to listen to them... To make a record of this absolutely unique time in history. Listening to Community is a document of these conversations, a document that celebrates the shared power of listening to, and with, others. "<br/><br/>The Network & D-M would like to thank all of the residents who were interviewed for this special episode: Ben, Michelle, Mary, Lucas, Crissy, Rosa, Justin, Louie, Mr Hussein, Lou, Andy, David, Sienna, Shoba and Sedef.<br/><br/>The accompanying soundscapes were created by D-M Withers, Nat Brown, Dan Johnson, Tina Hitchens, Yvonna Magda and Matthew Grigg.<br/><br/>Episode music was from Kabbo Hue Ferdinand and banner artwork from Benoît Bennett (People's Republic of Stokes Croft).</p><p>The Held in Common logo was designed by Ben Robins (Knowle).</p>
