Just saw it, shame they didn’t give you more than a few seconds to show your work but good that they at least acknowledged it! Where can I hear the full track?

Typical TV editing. You can hear the work here

I’m going to put the release on Bandcamp today as well I think after a lot of interest :slight_smile:

Whilst in the house itself meanwhile I made this recording, where I followed a kind of Alvin Lucier “I am Sitting in a Room” pattern where I played the sound back into the house and kept re-recording it. This, to me, is really how the piece should be experienced:

Very cool! I remember we talked about this when I interviewed you and I’ve been curios to hear the result ever since!

Was wondering why I hadn’t seen this house before but I see that it’s on the other side of the high street, closer to Clapton. Will keep an eye out for it if I happen to be passing by.

Do have a look! It’s an amazing creation indeed!

#12

Ah, nice. I’m uploading the entire project to Bandcamp this afternoon too, so stay tuned :slight_smile:

super fan of the show! do you know where can i see the episode online?

looking forward to ear the project

You can watch the episode back here. It’s the episode for House of the Year - Extreme Houses
Series 4 Episode 3

Kevin and his fellow judges visit an awe-inspiring set of cantilevered black boxes, a far-flung crofter’s cottage, a curvy concrete property, and a wedge house

I’m only for a brief moment as that’s how TV works but fun nevertheless!

Interesting house - I loved the top deck. Agree with above - would (of course) liked to have seen more of the studio. But what a great space to create in.

I’ve only just seen this thread but am a Grand Designs regular, so it was a lovely surprise to see you on the show. I ran through to tell my girlfriend that “Scanner’s on Grand Designs!” and then went off on one about how beautiful your studio looks :slight_smile: Off to listen to the track now…

Love RIBA house of the year so it was a very nice bonus to get some modular thrown in :slightly_smiling_face:.

That poured concrete frame would give me nightmares planning; only one chance to get it right :flushed:

Thanks. It’s typical of TV unfortunately in terms of editing and in fact failing to tell the full story, i.e. the sound was commissioned by the architects to be a permanent part of the fabric of the house. And it’s the reason I generally decline invitations for TV as you are filmed for three hours, only for them to use 30 seconds!

Nice one, thanks! I do enjoy working on such extraordinary projects as this. The next one launching in two weeks time is a project sonification of soil through an App so you can measure the levels of quality in European soil. A Christmas Number One I suspect :smiley:

Oh believe me it was utterly terrifying when they poured the concrete, with the slightest mistake meaning failure. I was there from the very beginning, when there was simply a dirty garage and rubbish there, so it’s been a fascinating journey. I stayed there too and loved it myself!

A great shot from another documentary made on the house where the modular get a little more focus! And the role of music gets far more credit in the relationship :slight_smile:

What an honour to have your blessing for this. Fantastic. Your cabinet design has indeed featured in many publications now and on national TV now :smiley: Keep up the wonderful work!
