Digital Producer for Milton Keynes International Festival 2021
I created from scratch the online programme, live-stream events, website landing page and new commissions such as Dan Davies’ soundscape: Truth, Beauty and Goodness
Sound artist Dan Davies (as featured on BBC1 Country File) has created a new soundscape trail for IF: 2021 that starts in Middleton Hall (location of Luke Jerram’s Gaia) and move through Campbell Park to the Tree Cathedral in Newlands (location for Luke Jerram’s Museum of the Moon) – taking in some 15 pieces of Milton Keynes’ public art.
