"Between the Ears: An Orkney Tapestry." BBC Radio 3 , 10 October 2021, 6:45–7:15 p.m.

"Orcadian composer Erland Cooper and violinist Daniel Pioro explore neolithic cairns and iron age brochs in a musical tribute to Orkney's late great poet George Mackay Brown." Producer: Victoria Ferran.

". . . for the [GMB] centenary, Erland has also recorded a three-part orchestral movement with Daniel Pioro and Studio Collective at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. As an experiment, and collaboration with the landscape itself, all digital recorded files were deleted and the only recording exists on a reel-to-reel tape. Erland will bury this during the trip in an undisclosed location, to be left for three years to decompose . . . unless someone else finds it first."
