A spllit 12″ LP with Will Montgomery: Heygate and Robert Curgenven: Looking for narratives on small islands.
Side 1: Heygate is made from sounds sourced in and around the Heygate estate in the Elephant and Castle area of south London. The estate, finished in 1974, is a high-profile relic of Southwark Council’s vigorous housing construction programme in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Now almost empty and facing demolition.
