Collective listening for restorative planning
As part of the Greengage Project, we’ve been out in Barton Hill and Lawrence Hill speaking with many residents. We wanted to hear how the East Bristol Liveable Neighbourhood (EBLN) trial is affecting everyday life, and what people think needs to change for future Liveable Neighbourhoods to truly work for local people.
Now it’s time to share back what you generously shared with us!
Come and experience an immersive sound installation made from voices and stories recorded at the Conversation Stations across Barton Hill.
These recordings have been carefully co-curated with sound artist Nik Rawlings, bringing together different perspectives on the trial scheme and life in the neighbourhood.
Visit on Saturday 6th December or Sunday 7th December at Watershed:
Or visit on Tuesday 9th December 4.30-6.30pm at Wellspring Settlement. No booking is needed, come along to the Terrace Room at the Settlement Site to share drinks/nibbles and experience the sound installation from 4.30 to 5.30pm or 5.30 to 6.30pm.
Please note that latecomers will only be admitted in the first 10 minutes of each slot time.
About Bristol Civic Observatory
KWMC, PRAXIS, UWE, Bristol City Council and Barton Hill communities, have developed the Bristol Civic Observatory as a shared planning instrument that enables policymakers, communities and researchers to work with data in ways that help them make sense of change together.
This prototype is enabled by GREENGAGE, funded by EU/UKRI.
