SURVEY of ENGLISH DIALECTS | BRITISH LIBRARY

This project was designed for ISTD 2012/13 competition. Participants have been asked to express any record from the online archive of the British Library's "Survey of English dialects" in any means, however the major component should have been typography.

I have transcribed an audio record and visualised it according to the language/typography features.
Original quotation about the record I have used from British Library online archive:
 
Fred talks about his work as a travelling thresher. The original recording appears to have been paused on one occasion. Newchurch (to the east of Appledore), Brookland, Brenzett (both just to the Southeast), Wittersham, Stone (both just to the Southwest), Ashenden and Small Hythe (both just to the Northwest) are all nearby villages. Tenterden (to the Northwest) and Ashford (to the Northeast) are nearby towns and Stowmarket (to the North) is a town in Suffolk.
Visualised dialect of Appledore, Kent, United Kingdom.
