ARAN ISLANDS TRIP
In
April 2005 Professor Tom Mardikes traveled with three graduate sound
design students (pictured left to right Kristian Ball, Patrick Meagher,

to the island of Inishmaan, The Aran Islands, in western Ireland. The
project began with extensive planning in two main categories; assembling
equipment and international travel plans.
The "mission" was to visit and record natural sounds of Inishmaan for an upcoming production of Martin McDonagh's "The Cripple of Inishmaan." We planned to provide research and images for the production, record high quality sounds, and learn what we could about the island. (
