Composer Iain Chambers鈥檚 celebration of the domestic sound world, starting in the present day before travelling back in time.
Lockdown gave us the excuse to consider our own home environments in a new way. Household Gods takes this new focus further, exploring in depth and amplifying the sounds of domestic objects, arranged into a through-composed musique concr猫te work.
This is a joyful sonic celebration of the domestic environment, starting in the present day, and travelling back in time to explore earlier homes, through historic sound research and sound design.
At times the domestic sound world is bustling, at others a haven of peace. We hear the technology that helps us cook, clean, relax, eat, pass time.
During lockdown, many of us rediscovered the hidden joy in the objects that surround us that we hadn鈥檛 properly considered before our enforced isolation.
Composed and produced by Iain Chambers.
