Competition Brief
It is not always possible for people to escape the noise of the city to a more natural environment so creating sound environments for wellness is an essential nutrient for sustainable cities. This soundscape should aim to make a noisy and reverberant space more relaxing and restorative to support the wellbeing of the listener.
The main theme of the piece should be inspired by Natural Scotland but from the perspective of Glasgow, with this context providing an anchor and sense of place, drawing from the rich human heritage of the area. The piece should embrace and explore humanity’s fundamental reliance on our natural world, providing a journey for the listener.
The soundscape should be accompanied by a video track using material selected from images and video of your choosing, but inspired where appropriate by our partners the Scottish Wildlife Trust (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SDxOy-F3gs). The piece should be between 5 and 10 minutes duration.
