Wild Peninsula: Color and Sound in North Portland is a collaboration between Carolyn Hazel Drake - fiber works, Michael Brooks - photography, Michael Gerston - event hosting at Speck’s Records and Tapes, Adrienne Basey - native plant restoration specialist consultant, and Eric Jordan - sound and music. This work is born out of life in North Portland, representing these neighborhoods as they currently are. Other than what interviewees may recount with historical information or recollection of past events, this will be a contemporary survey of the peninsula. There will be more episodes along the way to this piece’s exhibit and performance in October, 2023. Infinite thanks to the Regional Arts and Culture Council for their grant funding of this project!

Part 2: The St. Johns Bridge
Layered field recording with open-air and contact mics placed on the St. Johns Bridge - which connects the North Portland neighborhood of St. Johns to the Northwest Portland mega-park Forest Park. The overall structure and feel of this episode comes from a conversation with Liz Smith, resident of St. Johns, business-booster extraordinaire, vocalist, and all-around good person. Snippets of that conversation pepper between the second and third movements of this music-heavy episode. Infinite thanks to Liz for her time and conversation between ice and rain showers!

Part 1: The Kelley Point
A sound piece centered around 2 days of field recordings at Kelley Point Park, in North Portland, Oregon. This is the part of the St. Johns neighborhood where the Willamette River and the Columbia River converge. It is currently a city park bound by these two rivers on each side, ringed by ports and their industries. Day 1 captured a train loaded with grain unloading into a silo, while another part of that silo filled a ship on the Willamette. Day 2 was at daybreak as a tugboat pushed a crane from the Columbia, past Suave Island, then up the Willamette.
