On a Cat's Whisker was a 4 month oral history project that took place in 6 locations in Durham County in 2005. The work focussed on the impact of radio during the Second World War and was an inter-generational initiative involving over 90 people from ages of 12 - 75. The recollections were used to create a multi-media performance by young people at the Gala Theatre in Durham City and a DVD.

My role was as producer, video and DVD developer, photographer and publicity designer.

Commissioned by Durham City Arts, I worked with a creative team delivering workshops in video production and digital recording. The performance was a collaboration over 5 days with a Director, Drama Worker , Sound Artist and the youth group, where the drama and video projections were brought together for a one night show in the Gala Theatre..
