"The body is the expression" - Alwynne Pritchard on the sounds that inspire her music
British composer and performer Alwynne Pritchard tells Hear and Now how her work is inspired by the phenomenon popularly known as Autonomous sensory meridian response, or ASMR. From the light jingling of jewelry to the almost inaudible sounds of a young piano pupil concentrating, Pritchard has utilised these subtle sounds in to her music and performances.
