Orkney Library & Archive’s sound archive is home to hundreds of voices on reel to reel tapes and cassettes, rich in dialect and broad in content. Creatives Mark Jenkins & Rebecca Marr (Kolekto) take a deep dive in to this archive and emerge with a different way of listening. Travelling across time, this audio ballad is a lyrical and immersive experience. Let the Orkney Sound Waves wash over you.
