Deptford 45s

Writing From Hither Green
My friend Anita is up to interesting things again-

Deptford 45s

Deptford 45s is 7 x3 min films, listening posts, workshops, a limited edition giveaway CD & website with gallery, a virtual archive of the area created through a subjective process. The CD & films are not a definitive re-presentation of Deptford merely a reflection of a moment in time.

Gathering the everyday sites and sounds of Deptford, sign posted by local residents through the use of a market stall & a series of workshops, the project documents a moment in time in SE8, an area currently under major development. By recording the everyday sounds of Deptford, offered by local residents and my own experience the area is re-presented in an idiosyncratic way.


Anybody who's aware of Anita's previous project Memphis 45s will know this is going to be fascinating.

I might take up the remix challenge too - I need to do something creative on these long evenings stuck at home....
