Hibernus Opus Continuum (2019)
'Hibernus opus continuum' is a mistranslation of 'winter work continues', 'continuum' being a reference to the piece of the same name by Sophie Stone. Originally a 90-minute longform composition and performance piece, 30 minutes of Continuum was selected unedited to form the 'bed' (or background) of this documentary and the interviews were cut to the music – a reversal of the usual feature documentary-making process.
The piece is a deliberately experimental podcast documentary created for Canterbury Christ Church University's Wintersound festival 2019. It takes three interviews with people from Canterbury and surrounding areas whose work is affected by the seasons and presents them in a non-linear way, exploring the relationship between sound and narrative in the podcast feature documentary form.
This programme features interviews with Jon Mills, director of The Foundry pub in Canterbury, Lucy of Lucky Hedgehog Rescue in Deal, and Danny Martin, manager of the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway.
