The first episode in the Desire Lines podcasts, a series of audio collages based on Crow Park in Keswick.
These podcasts share research from Desire Lines, an art project that engages with communities around Crow Park, hosted by the National Trust. The project explores the connections humans have with the natural world, and how a relationship with a local green space can open up global questions - including conservation, climate change, ecology and access.
In Episode 1, join Maurice, Jessie, Roy and Livi, Morwenna and Geeta to delve into deep, slippery time - mixing up the past, present and future. You’ll hear snippets of conversation about the history of Borrowdale from the beginning of time, geology as time travel, changing landscapes and people’s visions of a future which does not yet exist.
This podcast was edited and produced by R L Wilson. Recordings were made by Rebecca Beinart and RL Wilson.
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the project so far, and Jessie Binns and the North and West National Trust team for their support.
The Desire Lines project is part of Trust New Art, the National Trust’s programme of contemporary arts, supported using public funding by Arts Council England and produced with support from Arts & Heritage. Also available on Apple Podcasts - Arts&Heritage.
