(g)Host City is a sound map of Edinburgh, created by artists.
Each one has created a new audio piece responding to a specific part of Scotland’s capital city, from graveyards and ruined chapels to shopping centres and bus routes.
(g)Host City was launched at the 2011 Edinburgh Festival, with a programme of work by Momus, Kieran Hurley, Alan Bissett, Kirstin Innes, Hannah McGill, Jim Colquhoun, Ewan Morrison, Jenny Lindsay, Christopher Collier, Katy McAulay, and Laura Cameron-Lewis. It won widespread media coverage, including Channel 4 News, BBC Radio Scotland, the Guardian, The List, the Scotsman, Fest, and the Observer.
In 2012, (g)Host City was commissioned by Edinburgh City of Literature to create six new pieces, by Gavin Inglis, Kirsty Logan, Ken MacLeod, JL Williams, Kirsty Logan and James Robertson, as part of enLIGHTen, a major public art project. We also added another new piece by Hamish Kallin and Fiona Keenan.
(g)Host City was created by Laura Cameron-Lewis and Andrew Eaton-Lewis.
