The installation is based around dummers drumming and pipers piping, taken from the Christmas song – The 12 Days of Christmas. Come along and join in the fun. All the 12 days of Christmas will be represented in various creative ways!

I produced a program entitled Composition or Sound Design for Resonance FM Framework:afield. The program was aired on Sunday 8th Novemer 2009.
