Listening to a few of Kaye Mortley’s docs and liking them but wishing for a little more story structure. But then listening to heavily explained ones and wishing to be left alone a bit to listen after my ears were used to free rein.

I’ve been listening to and watching a lot of documentaries this week for research and planning teaching. It’s inspiring and also emotionally draining. And now I have to go Christmas food shopping, which is quite the wake up call.

The skipping was recorded with binaural mics in the boxer's ears. That places the listener inside the bubble and maybe in some sense inside the interior world of the thoughtful boxer.

XG says a skipping rope forms a bubble around the person skipping. And within this bubble the skipper retreats, interiorises.

In the opening monologue a boxer lists all the domestic duties that preoccupy her. Her thoughts go round and round while the sound of a skipping rope is relentless.

I also find it a bit frustrating how fast it all rattles past. But I listened to two US docs I won't name on the same evening that explained everything.very.slowly and to be honest that drives me completely mad. Give me a stream of consciousness in movements any day.

It's about Einstein Patrick Mupalu who repairs electronics and he shares a lot about his life and hopes. It's packed with information and ideas but I think the structure foregrounds feelings. Not just when he talks about feelings, but the sense of pressure and speed of his work.

The strength of feeling over the last few days has blown us away. Underneath the reaction it strikes us that there is a deeper, more important anger - an anger that asks - where are the structures to support creative audio? Where do new audio imaginations get to grow? 🪴

Some of the sound design is spot on. But sometimes it feels intrusive or too on the nose. I wish they would trust the power of the voice more. Would thoroughly recommend though. At its best when the interviewees are almost lost for words. Lagos Robs You or So… I went to Yabaleft.

Not a format you hear much in audio documentary - La Sage Femme/the midwife by Anna Salzberg/Arte is full-on fly-on-the-wall, 'observational mode'. Delicately done. As a non-native speaker this is harder than narrated docs. I think much goes over my head. www.arteradio.com/serie/la_sag...
