Watch a film using shadow-puppetry we made with men at HMP Ranby

The aim of Good Vibrations is to run music workshops to help people develop crucial skills like team-working, communication, listening and concentration.

For this project, 20 men at Ranby Prison took part in a full-time two week multi-arts project incorporating gamelan (Indonesian bronze percussion), music technology and shadow puppetry, culminating in a shadow puppet show accompanied by gamelan and electronics. The pieces created by the group were designed to appeal to their families and children. This film is one of the pieces created by the group, called Circle of Life.
