Podcast Overview

Lowlines is a sonic scrapbook and a passport to roam. Following one woman’s pull to tune into the pulse of place - befriending strangers along the way. Feeling pranged out by the London business hustle, food entrepreneur Petra Barran brought an audio recorder and set off with no itinerary, guided simply by a hunger to get lower and closer to the ground. The series is a holiday for the ears, taking us to the heartbeat of New Orleans, the low-slung wetlands of South Louisiana, the slow gyrations of the Amtrak to Tucson. Down to the brittle rasp of the Sonoran desert, the rich, volcanic soil of Mexico City’s Aztec allotments and further, to the soaring jungle chorus of the Peruvian Amazon.

07 |Epilogue: Landing Back in London

<p>Leaving the jungle, leaving the Americas, heading home! After OD-ing on mould and the thick, viscose brew - as well as more ‘place’ than I knew what to do with at times - the sweet relief of a plump pillow, seasoned food and a hot bath soon gives way to this eerie sense of…mutedness. All I can hear is white noise - and what do you do about that when you realise that most of your life is soundtracked by this dull hum?</p><p><br></p><p>In Episode 7, the final part of this first series of Lowlines, we move back into the familiar high-pitched world, prepare to re-adjust - and consider how to land back into it differently.</p><p><br></p><p>Credits</p><p><br></p><p>Produced by Lucia Scazzocchio of <a href="https://www.socialbroadcasts.co.uk/">Social Broadcasts</a>, Executive-Produced by Lina Prestwood of <a href="https://www.scenerystudios.com/">Scenery Studios</a>, Mixing &amp; Mastering: <a href="https://jobinatinnemans.com/">Jobina Tinnemans</a></p><p>Music by <a href="http://www.hannahmarshall.net/">Hannah Marshall</a> and icoros sung by Maestra Estela, Maestra Yaca, Maestro Nestor and Maestro Daniel<br>Epilogue Production and Sound Design by Lina Prestwood</p><p><br>To go deeper into this episode and the rest of the series - and to sign up to the Lowlines newsletter - head to <a href="http://low-lines.com/">low-lines.com</a></p>

06 |Low Vines: Pulled Down in Peru

<p>Two weeks at a plant medicine centre in the Peruvian Amazon - I thought this would be a good thorough deep dive and that I might get wiser and closer to the plants, but I soon discover that two weeks is nothing and that I know nothing. Everything at Aya Madre is a challenge to what you think you understand and who you think you are. An assault on the senses, a take-down of the ego, an all-out reckoning with not even the release of a firm conclusion.</p><p><br></p><p>This final episode of the first season of Lowlines is the anti-conclusion episode. Give it up to the twisting, knotted vines and the soaring, deafening jungle chorus. Just go with it.
