about walking about 15th May

three of us who met at Winter School in Glasgow earlier this year are walking together apart today. In Portland, Oregon, U.S., London, England and Grantchester, England, Lilian Gael, Richard Layzell and material woman have synchronised their timepieces, gathered a companion or two and will be ready to go at 16.00 GMT
material woman is joined by Max Weaver Lavers and they will walk the circuit that links the key hiding places (numbered in red on the map) from her earlier IN THE DARK, looking for traces.

This is to let you know of the outcome of my Aune Head Arts commission on Dartmoor last summer. Along with three other artists, all of us over 65, I was given the opportunity to make a sound piece for the EVA project. The result is a 15 minute piece called a setting for her words, made in collaboration with Penny Roberts. Full details of the project, including all artists, can be found at http://www.auneheadarts.net/site/projects/eva/?page_id=965 There are three ways to access a setting for her words: You can listen live on-line at http://www.soundartradio.org.uk/ between 11am and 12noon on 28 march 2013. A podcast of the programme is downloadable at http://www.auneheadarts.net/site/projects/eva/?page_id=27 If you would like a CD version to play on your sound system, I can send you one in return for £5.00 and your postal address. Below is a copy of the CD cover and sleeve note with details of technicalities and personnel material woman and elspeth owen look forward to your responses
here is a very simple idea for a walk Hop, Skip, Jump I walk to a friend (no more than a day's walk from me) and stay over, the two of us walk together (no more than a day's walk) to a third person, (unknown to me), we stay over and then the three of us walk (no more than a day's walk) to my place. It would also be possible to do a version which all happened in one day or two days, according to the time people have. I am starting my first version of this pattern today, walking east to a friend in Fulbourn, tomorrow to Hinxton and Sunday back home to Grantchester I would be delighted if you should you want to adopt this framework for a walk at any time and very interested to hear of your experience if you do material woman
