Cristín Leach introduces this year s HearSay HomeFires audio arts festival, which takes place online and in Kilfinane, County Limerick from 7- 14 May.
I have been a judge for the Hearsay International Audio Arts Festival Prize since 2013. It s a festival that has always been about community, and the synergy that comes from bringing people from all over the world together, in a physical place.
In normal times, around 150 audio-makers from various sound disciplines, backgrounds, and locations arrive in Kilfinane, County Limerick and are hosted by the people of the town, on the streets, in the buildings, businesses and in their homes. Some kind of remarkable synergy happens. New ideas are born, new connections are made, new stories are heard and told, and a world of possibility opens up. Every HearSay Festival builds on the next by sparking future contributions.
