The Lock Shift Songs, was a sonic installation by Award-winning sound artist Kaffe Matthews commissioned by the Canal & River Trust and Milton Keynes International Fesitival in 2014.
In a walk along the Grand Union Canal – which connects London to Milton Keynes – Kaffe collected sounds (including from under the water) and stories from people who use, live or work on the waterways to inspire songs
and a composition that played through a series of large ‘sonic beds’ that people could lie in for a fully immersive and sensory sound experience.
