Lucy Stevens is a multidisciplinary artist based in Leicester, trained in the visual arts whose recent work has focused on listening and recording her surrounding environment. Using in- ear microphones she creates binaural audio soundscapes. She is interested in Psychogeography (the study of the specific effects of the geographical environment, on the emotions and behaviour of individuals), and the way in which Guy Debord’s theories have informed the context of her practice. The recording technique, achieves incredibly precise three- dimensional sound to create an experience of physical immediacy and complexity, offering the listener a multitude of sensations, leaving them unable to distinguish between what is ‘live’ sound and what is recorded.
