Street Stories
Marva Jackson Lord works with audio collage, storytelling and digital media. She immersed herself in the soundscape of St Helens Road and gathered the ambient noise of the street, community gatherings and conversations struck up with passers-by. As her alter ego Rip Van Winklette, Marva developed a guided visualisation in which participants were invited to imagine a utopian vision of the street. Marva took these recordings and, using AI, created fantastical images of possibility.
