Robin Hayward – exploring the micro-sounds of a tuba, filling slowly with sand.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an abandoned oil tanker on Hoy.
Includes: a polish counting lesson, around NYC with D A Pennebaker, a portrait of a tower block, a man with a spade, at home with KYTN regular Guy Sherwin, a cinematic Blair Witchish cut-up and a song for some swings.
