The Plants Talk Back: part 2

Day 2 of ‘The Plants Talk Back’ is a sound workshop led by local artists Rosie Carr and Holly Hunter, and organised by Jemma Cullen with members of GOLD (Getting on with Learning Difficulties) and Arts in Ramsgate. By harnessing plant and human bioelectricity using Playtronica devices (prepare to be amazed), we give voice to flora at the site. We invite the public to a live improvised performance on site at 4pm.
