#10: Brighton Earthship

September 16, 2007 19:59 - 26.1 MB

Mischa Hewitt of The Low Carbon Network takes Andy on a tour of the Brighton Earthship. Imagine a building that heats itself during the winter, cools itself during the summer, deals with it’s own waste, collects all the water it needs from the environment, is made from old car tyres, and looks beautiful - that’s an earthship.

September 10, 2007 15:53 - 26.6 MB

Andy does his best to get a feel for Pride even though he arranged to go visit his in-laws on the day - Wooooops!

Meet a guy who regularly performs a three point turn - with an atom! Learn how to measure the charge separation in a neutron - and change the course of String Theory.

All this happened at the University of Sussex in their Ingenious event where the exciting world of science and research was opened for all to see.

#7: Hang Drum and Didgeridoo Music

June 09, 2007 19:36 - 7.1 MB

Strolling along Gardiner Street in the North Laines, I heard these two guys producing an amazing sound, they were Danny and Matias, who call themselves Rishikesh. I just had to record them for the show. Matias was playing the didgeridoo and Danny had what looked like an up-side-down wok - actually a hang drum. Enjoy.

May 25, 2007 19:58 - 20.5 MB

The Udderbelly is a big, blue, up-side-down cow that tours the country attending various festivals including our very own Brighton Fringe Festival. I had the pleasure of sitting in the Udderbelly bar (actually a tent) and chatting with two comedy sketch teams who were playing there, Greedy (Louie Bayliss, Felicity Wren, Rachel Egan, Alan Freestone and James Wren) and The Pros from Dover (Neil Cole, Phil Whelans and Richard Glover). Learn all about bowel gas problems, accidents th...

#2: Fringe City

May 07, 2007 14:17 - 20.3 MB

With mike in hand, I venture into Jubilee Square to capture the essence of Fringe City. I meet a man wearing a judge’s wig, a man with giant cardboard ears and a man making funny sounds with a guitar, a laptop and lots of wires. I also meet lots of lovely people who promise to review the performances they see during the festival - horah!
