The Radion Project Launch

I have just updated the blog on my author website and have realised that I keep choosing the same dress when I'm metaphorically wearing my author hat https://lisajanehorner.wixsite.com/lisahornerauthor/blog. Note to self, wear a different dress next time!

It was the Radion launch today, particularly for the lenticular screen, very recently the audio tour had been added which you access by scanning a QR code. More info can be found at https://radionproject.com/.

The Mayor was there, plus a few of us who had chosen buildings on one side of the lenticular screen and talked about those buildings on the audio tour. Also, the schools were visiting, many schools in the area had done projects to do with nature in the area and had made leaf rubbings. You can find out about that particular part of the project here.

Metal Culture's Zoom Event - Quite a Few Faces from the Past!

I have known about Metal Culture, the one that is based in Southend, and their events for some time. I have often thought of joining one of their events but didn't get around to it. Last night I plucked up the courage to join their Zoom meeting called 'BASILDON, what next for the Creative Industries in South Essex?' It was really good actually, I imagined that I would sit observing, feeling too awkward to join in, but in fact I did get involved and added something to the various debates that were going on. To start with we watched six speakers; Aden Hynes from Sculpture Studios who showed a film. Moira Brock from La Danse Fantastique who showed a film. Joseph Brennan, an architect. Clare Mortimer from The Craft Shed. TIME - Therapy in Musical Expression, who showed a film and then Laura Mauro a writer. It was really interesting, although I already knew about Sculpture Studios and TIME. There were about forty participants and what struck...

Hear Ye! Hear Ye!

I've got lots of news to shout about. 1. Just one day to my talk at Keene Hall, Watchouse Road, Galleywood. The talk will commence at 8.00pm, please arrive about 7:45 if you plan to go. Fun fact! I was actually born seventeen years to the day after Basildon New Town came into existence. Basildon New Town was born on (so to speak) 4 January 1949 and I was born on 4 January 1966. Don't you think that is odd?! A bit spooky! 2. A lot is happening behind the scenes towards Basildon Writers' Group's second anthology. Very exciting! But it's not my place to say more, except that I have a story in said book. 3. My musical son has a lovely voice, just thought I'd get that in there! I recently thought of when I was in the community play for Basildon in 1989 called Beorhtel's Hill, that was thirty-four years ago now! That is history, relatively speaking. I sent some photos to the Basildon Heritage Group for their archives. Photographs from behind the scenes and the...
