In January 2011, three bold stravaigers – Alasdair Roberts, Aileen Campbell, and Drew Wright – set forth upon a twelve-week commissioning residency in The School of Scottish Studies Archives at The University of Edinburgh.
This site tracks their progress as they listen to tapes, sift through photos, conduct their own fieldwork and begin to develop new performances from their findings.
