6km of traffic-free 'open streets` await those taking part in Let`s Ride Leicester a free event with a focus on cycling. A route taking in The King Power Stadium, Leicester Castle, Leicester Cathedral and Jubilee Square features entertainment at various points from Jugglers to Drummers, Sambando, BMX Skills and more so there is something for everyone. Look out in the video for a man playing a Saxophone whilst being taken around the route in an adapted bike. My film follows the cyclists around the route and looks at some of the various stops around it.

Steli is an interactive urban performance by Stalker Teatro that resembles a game of giant pick up sticks. The work starts off with a few small structures before the public are invited to join in and complete a visually striking piece of contemporary artwork exploring the themes of living and inhabiting architecture in post-industrial cities. My film aims to show the piece as it takes shape with a live soundtrack provided by an on site DJ mixing in sounds from various sources including his own voice to create a soundscape as varied as the artwork itself. The performance was part of The City Streets Festival which itself is part of The City Festival in Leicester a collection of festivals bringing street entertainment, sports, Culture, Music, Art, Heritage, and more in a city wide celebration of Leicester.
