From One To The Other is a series of recordings made via Skype of volunteers reading descriptions of women sourced from the novels of Iris Murdoch. Contributors include readers who responded to callouts placed on on-line classified ad services and from locations including Moscow, Hong Kong, Canada, Liverpool and Paris.
The descriptions are written by Murdoch as first person male narrator. I was interested in how these 20C (primarily misogynistic) accounts might be 'interpreted' through both the use of Skype, the screen, and the voices of contemporary women readers.
With huge thanks to Alexandra Ezberova, Alison Macintyre, Amanda Calow, Amy Minto, Andrea Golightly, Anne Roberts, Ariana Bamlett Preston, Candice Woods, Carolyn Bell, Emilie Hwang, Esme Duggleby, Ethel Maqueda, Gerrie Douglas Scott, Helen Williams, Joanne Land, Joanne Lee, Josie Sommer, Kate Briggs, Laura Wildman, Linda Chadd, Lindsay Balderson, Marie O'Keeffe, Marilyn Long, Marina Androsovitch, Merlyn Griffiths, Nicky Peacock, Nicola Parkin, Pru Kitching, Ruby Sommer, Steph Jefferies, Sue Downing, Susan Douglas-Scott, Teresa Maybery, Vera Souvorova and Ysabelle Cheung.
