This track has been put together with the UNESCO Spring School at Glasgow University, using words, stories and sounds emerging from conversations on the Peace Bench.

A track made by and with the participants in the autumn 2024 artist residency at Eslövs Stadsbibliotek. Together we explored nature using our senses, learned new words, told stories, and made things. Thanks to everyone who lent their voices, sounds and languages to this piece: Elvira, Leila, Tayebeh, Damascene, Meri, Gorjan, Melina, Selina, Adison, Karna and Eileen.

Episode 1 of new podcast, Our chance of becoming human. This episode explores collaborative songwriting as a translation process, and ponders what can be 'found in translation'. And if integration and translation are both bridges from one person or place to another, then what is the nature of the in-between, the interstitial, liminal spaces?
