  • Towards a Sonic Methodology Cathy
    Island Studies Journal , Vol. 11, No. 2, 2016, pp. 343-358 Mapping the Outer Hebrides in sound: towards a sonic methodology Cathy Lane University of the Arts London, United Kingdom [email protected] ABSTRACT: Scottish Gaelic is still widely spoken in the Outer Hebrides, remote islands off the West Coast of Scotland, and the islands have a rich and distinctive cultural identity, as well as a complex history of settlement and migrations. Almost every geographical feature on the islands has a name which reflects this history and culture. This paper discusses research which uses sound and listening to investigate the relationship of the islands’ inhabitants, young and old, to placenames and the resonant histories which are enshrined in them and reveals them, in their spoken form, as dynamic mnemonics for complex webs of memories. I speculate on why this ‘place-speech’ might have arisen from specific aspects of Hebridean history and culture and how sound can offer a new way of understanding the relationship between people and island toponymies. Keywords: Gaelic, island, landscape, memory, Outer Hebrides, place-speech, sound © 2016 – Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada Introduction I am a composer, sound artist and academic. In my creative practice I compose concert works and gallery installations. My current practice focuses around sound-based investigations of a place or theme and uses a mixture of field recording, interview, spoken text and existing oral history archive recordings as material. I am interested in the semantic and the abstract sonic qualities of all this material and I use it to construct “docu-music” (Lane, 2006).

  • Clan Morrison, Judges of Lewis-- and the Isles?
    CLAN MORRISON, JUDGES OF LEWIS-- AND THE ISLES? Clan Morrison, like other Scottish clans, is a group of associated families who claim common descent from a particular ancestor. Morrison seems an anglicized name. In Scots Gaelic MacGhilleMhoire may have been the clan’s original name. (MacGiollamoire, Irish Gaelic). Some related family surnames are: Gilmore, Gilmour, Judge, Judd, Brieve, Elmore, and Morrison. A detailed list of associated surnames is available from the Clan Morrison Society. See www.clanmorrison.net for more details. Beyond 15 generations back, little is conclusively known of the origins of the Morrisons of Pabbay. Some believe the MacGhilleMhoire’s originated in the Outer Hebrides’ isles, possibly on Pabbay (Pabaigh, Old Gaelic), Lewis, and in Harris, the southern-most district of Lewis. It is thought that the Harris branch were hereditary armourers to the MacLeod’s. The clan may have a long history as blacksmiths. Dr. Ru Morrison, Chief of Clan Morrison, traces his pedigree back 15 generations through the Harris branch of the Morrisons. For at least 300 years, and maybe for centuries earlier, the MacGhillemhoire’s were brieves - judges, law experts – on Lewis, and perhaps the whole area ruled over by the MacDonald, Lord of the Isles. The Western Isles were wrested from the Norse (c. early 1200’s) the MacDonald then perhaps used the clan as his judiciary. The brieves were experts in the old Brehon (Celtic) laws, which came to Scotland from Ireland when the Scotti crossed to Kintyre in the 5th century. The Lords sought to return their people to an earlier Gaelic glory.
