    • Some of the most interesting film-makers and audio artists working today have responded to the challenge of creating short audio works for ‘a darkened cinema’. Contributors have included Andrew Kotting, Tony Hill and The Brothers Quay. The result is a unique and entertaining experience that gives the mind’s eye a welcome stretch. The Audible Picture Show is designed to evolve and adapt each time it is presented, incorporating where possible work made by artists local to each event. CINECITY 2004 has commissioned four new “Cinema For The Ears” audio pieces to feature as part of this year’s festival.

    Special ticket price: £4 / £3.70 DoY members

    The event will beintroduced by Matt Hulse
