Kate Mitchell

Kate represented three collectives as part of the temporary master programme, Lumbung Practice: Khamoosh (Tehran), Soundcamp (London) and RE-PEAT (translocal/Europe).

Khamoosh is a participatory artistic research community that facilitates conservation

and restoration by exploring the sonic heritage of Iran through recorded sounds of

everyday life; sounds less heard or even silenced. This process-based project aims to

build an interactive archive of sounds and to exchange, resurrect and decolonise these

sounds using artistic methods.

RE-PEAT is an international youth-led collective with a mission to change the narrative

around peatlands across Europe and beyond, what we term a “peatland paradigm

shift”. We work to realise our mission through two major pathways: expanding the circle

of people interested and activated on peatlands and bringing a strong climate and social

justice focus into the existing peatland field.

Soundcamp is an arts cooperative based at Stave Hill Ecological Park in Rotherhithe. We work on transmission ecologies from DIY broadcasting devices to public sound and radio projects. As part of the Acoustic Commons network, we coordinate the long-form radio broadcast Reveil (2014 —), and a series of sound and ecology events (soundcamps) on Dawn Chorus day each year.
