Fragments: Memories of Place, a site-specific sound sculpture by Living Rhythms, brings together spoken memories from across three generations of Ballyogan residents. The work weaves stories from those who remember the area as countryside in the 1940s, those who settled in the newly built estates of the 1980s and 1990s and helped establish vital community services, and those who have grown up in the locality more recently. Together, these voices reflect on remembering, making, and inheriting a place that has undergone profound transformation.

The second artwork, Factory Reset, is a collaborative project led by artists Karl Burke and David Beattie with Leaving Cert Applied students from Stepaside Educate Together Secondary School. Through a series of creative workshops exploring sound and psychoacoustics, students investigated how sound shapes our perception of place. The resulting work is a limited-edition sound composition, produced on audio tape, which will be available to borrow and experience at Ballyogan Library. You can also listen to the five tracks on Soundcloud.
