The original Resting Bench was a collaboration between poet Ann Wilson and Clutters Shaun Blezard for a mixed media exhibition which was held at The Nest in Barrow-in-Furness from May-July 2006
Ann responded in poetry to lo-fi digital photos of Barrow Island taken by Shaun. The poems were then recorded and added to a soundscape created by Shaun, incorporating field recordings of the island. Shaun also used recording of Ann singing some of the poems, recorded on her mobile phone.
The Resting Bench album - which includes the soundscape, the original recordings of the poems and copies of the exhibition artwork is the first release on Talking Monkey

An improvised remix of The Resting Bench was performed by Clutter and Ann Wilson to launch the exhibition live at The Nest on 20th May 2006. A recording of this can be streamed or downloaded at Earth Monkey - a part of the brand new Earth Monkey live archive which also features photos, audio recordings and video clips of Earth Monkey/Talking Monkey events
