GhosTrain - Nigel Helyer in residence - Saturday 13 March, 3pm
-
GhosTrain is focused upon the Eveleigh Railway Workshops, once the largest employer in New South Wales, and in its day a both a centre of technological innovation and of working class political organisation. The site was closed by the State government some decades ago and has recently been repurposed as a cultural zone, mirroring the redevelopment of its sister site (the Redfern Locomotive Workshops) as a Technology park. GhosTrain is designed in three stages and aims to recognise the importance of the soundscape that once characterised the site and endeavours to re-instate specific elements of its acoustic ecology and the memories contained within oral history.
