Could you spare one minute of your day to take part in a unique radio 

experiment and get your recording onto BBC Radio 4?


Soundscape Productions have been commissioned by BBC Radio 4 to produce


a ëRadio Poemí which explores what happens during one particular minute


in one particular day throughout the UK.  Presented by Sean Street and


produced by Andy Cartwright ëThen-Nowí will create a 28 minute radio 

programme out of hundreds of recordings of a single minute of time. 


Would you like to be part of the ëTHEN-NOWí poem ñ by making a 

recording of whatever you are doing at 6pm on the Wednesday 9th of 

November 2005?   


We want to collect recordings made at a variety of locations ñ eg the 

sounds of people travelling [train, bus, car, railway stations, bus 

stations, taxi offices] homes [kitchens, garages, residential homes 

etc..] shops, hotels, pubs, doctorís waiting rooms, playing fields, 

takeaways, hospitals, libraries etc. But please avoid recording other 

forms of media and try to avoid music backgrounds - unless you can 

supply music logging details.  


BUT I only want recordings of actuality, conversation and sounds made 

between 6 and one minute past 6 on this Wednesday evening [9th Nov].  


We will accept recordings made on any piece of sound recording 

equipment or video equipment [using a separate microphone if possible]


in any format - MiniDisc, CD, DAT, Audio Cassette, Digital Video, DVD 

etc... Please mark your recording with your name, the location of your


recording and clearly state where the minute begins and ends. For 

example: ìMy Kitchen, London Road, Northampton.  Track 2 -
02.43-03.43î


Unfortunately [because of the number of recordings] we are unable to 

offer a fee ñ just the fun and excitement of taking part in a unique 

radio experiment. But it will cost you nothing to send us your 

contribution.  


If you are interested in taking part in 'Then-Now' email us now at:- 

then.now@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and visit our Website at 

www.soundscapeproductions.co.uk which contains information on recording


techniques, hints as to what to record, how to remember to do your
