Sent is a project of 100 ideas about space.

A conversation with Sophie Lanigan, the founder of 'SENT' - a project of 100 ideas about space. See it on instagram: @sentfolder Interviewed by Ira Ferris while guesting on Trevor Brown's show Found Sounds Lost Horizons, Eastside Radio 89.7FM. Music played was selected by Trevor Brown. Features snippets are from: 1) Helu :: live set played at the 2020 SICKO fest 2) Yiorgis Batis :: Gypsy Girl Cafe Rebetika 3) Miles Davis :: in a silent way in a silent way To listen to other Found Sounds Lost Horizon's shows see: https://eastsidefm.org/foundsoundslosthorizons/

The project values writing and visuals equally, and so gives each medium equal space. At a lean 250 words a piece, the project avoids being reductive by acting as a long question rather than a simplified statement. Contributions to the project are sought from a global network of architects, artists, economists, lawyers and environmentalists but are welcome from anyone who would like to be Sent. A new postcard is posted weekly on @sentfolder.

Sent explores how we conceive space and the conversations surrounding it. Sent wants to know more about the nuances, failures, intrigues and oddities that occur in the symbiotic relationships between people and their space - physical or otherwise.
