The sounds of ideas forming (MP3, 22.5mb, 20 minutes) Selections from seven CDs curated by Alan Dunn featuring new works by art students from Leeds Metropolitan University alongside negotiated archival material and artists' content. 'Soundtrack for a Mersey Tunnel' (2008) was given away on the 433 tunnel bus and featured the sounds of Cage's silences alongside post-clubbing underwater Vespa journeys; 'Music for the Williamson Tunnels' extended the single drip of water as a binary unit from which compositions are built, 'Artists' uses of the word revolution' explored phonetics, 'Grey is the colour of hope' and 'A history of background' stripped artworks back down to the bone, 'Soundtrack to a catastrophic world' captured moments of collapse and erosion and 'Adventures in numb4rland' wove a thread through culture around the number 4.
