Or So We've Heard is an ongoing collaboration
with Helen Sharp and local residents accross the
council areas of Armagh, Banbridge, Craigavon ,
Cookstown & Dungannon. For the project we are
organising a series of research gathering events
accross the
council
areas where we gather
place nicknames,
remidies, recipies cures and contemporary
urban myths and anecdotes This vernacular, word of mouth
information will be published in a book late 2009.
The book
will
be illustrated with drawings and photographs relating
to these areas. The book will be published
at the end of 2009.
The unofficial
and vernacular material collected does
not appear on city street maps or other official,
formal state or city documents. The
interest in unofficial information stems from a concern
regarding the politics of how place is
described at a local level.
