Lullaby Project App

The Lullaby Project app documents a localised tour that travelled to three Early Childhood Care & Education Centres in County Sligo: Toadstool Cottage in Ballyrush, Little Pathways in Strandhill, and Sandcastles in Enniscrone.

The Lullaby project created gentle sensory environments in which babies aged 6-18 were invited to explore sounds and melodies, natural materials, texture, colour and mark making with artist Maree Hensey, musician Martin Brunsden.  The sentiment of lullaby is being explored by the artists through a holistic exploration, in which emphasis is placed on the circle, slowing down, and building confidence through one-to-one engagement with the babies.

As creative technologist, D’Arcy documented The Lullaby Project with audio recordings and photography, combining these elements in an app for iPhone and iPad.
