The Ridge Salon 1

​

The first Ridge Salon took place on Friday 9 May 2025, and I had the pleasure to share a meal with Sibylle Erdmann, Christopher Heighes, Molly McPhee, Emily Orley and Alexa Reid. Thank you. Over dinner we were treated to a reflection of holding multiple voices as an act of curation; a front room performance about Ludwig Koch, whose bird recordings formed the basis of BBC sound archives; a reading about social justice, policymaking and the Nightingale Courts (during Covid); a beautiful poem read in a way that cast a spell; and an immersive video art piece about avian/human care-giving/breatsfeeding.
