Explore Sonic Postcard World

Chelsea Children's Hospital School

London, SW5 0HR

School Year:2004-2005
Date:16 December 2004

Working with a small group of pupils between 10-13 years old, workshop leader Jo Lucas helped these young people create a fantastic Sonic Postcard of London. Their fieldtrip was a journey on an open top tourist bus around London where en route, the pupils interviewed tourists and asked questions about where they were from and what London sounded like compared to their own country. Stopping off at Marble Arch to catch a fantastic flute busker and at Trafalgar Square to capture the sounds of the fountains, this Sonic Postcard really sums up the essence of the project whilst integrating themes of language, nationality and the geography of London.
