Earlier in January PhD Composer Georgia Rodgers had her work Late Lines programmed in Sound Thought, an annual music composition, performance and research conference run by Glasgow University music department postgraduates. Georgia’s work, originally for cello and electronics, was presented as a fixed media installation in the cinema at the Centre for Contemporary Arts in Glasgow. The work impressed critic David Kettle of the Scotsman newspaper, who remarked:

‘Georgia Rodgers’s Late Lines remix put the playing of cellist Séverine Ballon through electronic processing to create sounds whose granular textures were so vivid you wanted to reach out and touch them. Sent spinning around the listener through four loudspeakers in the corners of the room, the music melded machine-like pistons and valves, sandstorms and solar winds into a slowly developing – and strangely gripping – crescendo.’
