Arty Facts

Arty Facts with Master J is a show about working in the arts. Today, Master J presents a seasonal special, turning his attention to the curious lack of Easter pop classics. We dig into the history (or absence) of Easter chart success, exploring why the holiday never quite inspired musical obsession. Along the way there'll be facts, trivia, jokes and malarkey, as Master J attempts to assemble and spin the greatest Easter songs of all time — a list that may include tracks from XTC, The Patti Smith Group and Shanks & Bigfoot. If you've finished your chocolate eggs and are looking for something else to consume that's bad for you, this might be the perfect. For more information visit Master J on Facebook.

Once Upon A Day On Eday

Once Upon a Day on Eday by Martin P. Eccles. A 24-hour work exploring 'a whole day' of a small Orcadian island. Recorded over 12 days and encompassing the 24 hours of a day, into this sonic time and place are added two walks. First, a circumferential walk of the island taking in the whole of the island perimeter; this offers an additional shifting perception of this place, one shaped by time, the topography of the land, the elements and human scale movement within these. Second, a replicated walk around the south end of the island; eight times across 24 hours walking the same path. Again, time expands and changes across the replications. Overall, the work offers an opportunity to hear time and place unfold at the pace of the other-than-human world along with the measured pace of human walking.
