Nuclear Family

Lindsay Duncason and Marek Gabrysch present field recordings and interviews taken on their tour of the UK's 16 active and decommissioned power stations in an Arts Council England supported project. In a series of three broadcasts in collaboration with Michael McHugh, a Newcastle-based sound designer and label manager of Signals, Duncanson and Gabrysch interview local stakeholders in the UK's nuclear infrastructure as diverse as armed police, Welsh protestors, bird watchers, fisherman, trainspotters, golfers and tourists. This three part documentary series paints oblique portraits of the controversial and unique nuclear environment, complementing the original travelogue, family photo album and project journal later developed by the artists into a book.
