Cultural Writing. CD + Booklet. Music. SIREN is the fourth in a series of multimedia projects entitled "bookscapes," created by Scottish artist, poet, and publisher Alec Finlay. SIREN explores sounds created by both humans and their surrounding environment. Collaborating with Chris Watson, Finlay recorded a man and woman simultaneously singing Tim Buckley's "Song to a Sailor" at dawn on two piers in the harbor of a North East English coastal village. SIREN contains the video, photographic, and audio documentation of this event. In this and the other publications in the "bookscapes" series, Finlay strives to shift the reader's focus from the single pages of a book to the open process of reading between word, image, and animation.
