Stuart Fowkes, a sound artist and field recordist from Oxford, UK, is the founder of Cities and Memory, a global collaborative sound project with the ambition to remix the world, one sound at a time. From a background of more than ten years using field recordings to give context to musical composition, he created Cities and Memory in 2014. Though it exists primarily as an online project, Cities and Memory has been exhibited both in the UK and internationally with installations and live performances, and Stuart has spoken on sound-related issues at conferences across Europe.
