Latest release
In the summer of 2022, I travelled across Canada and met Tamara Archie. She lives in Tk’emlúps (Kamloops) on Secwepemcúl’ecw, a the semi-arid part of British Columbia.
🎙️ I wrote this poem at the international symposium on soundscape in Lugano, Switzerland, in October 2023. The theme was looking at how sound creations and listening practices can help us shape better futures for human and more-than-human life.
🎵 The musical accompaniment was a spontaneous creation offered by my friend Squiff Eye, photographer, graphic designer and sound producer. Listen here for more spoken word tracks.
Hello there,
I’m Louise. I trained as an anthropologist in Germany, Canada and Denmark. I have been actively campaigning for Indigenous rights and climate justice these past years. In 2023, I took a deep dive into the production of immersive sound journeys which I’m releasing as a podcast show: Circle of Voices.
When I am not traveling, I live on the edge of a small community woodland in Stroud (South West England). I also love to dance and to perform spoken word.
