An invitation to reflect on how the Sun's movements can remind us to slow down.

Between the Ears in miniature returns with new short works themed around Midsummer Dreaming. Airing in the run up to our dream-like night of adventurous radio, featuring treasures from the BBC Radio 3 archives from sunset until sunrise on the summer solstice.

Even the sun stands still. In a world designed constantly to produce, where we're exposed to the daily paralysing effects of doomscrolling and healed by the small joys of the everyday, producer Axel Kacoutié invites us to reflect on how the Sun's movements can remind us to slow down.

Featuring Georgina Walker, Emily Lucienne and Sol, Aaron Edwards, Mary Leter, Buitumelo Kotekwa, Shadé Joseph, Tiwin Aji, Makella Ama Kededzi, Paul Nataraj, Keyari Page, Eleanor Penny, Baudelaire Ceus, Tasneim Zyada, Fabien Maturin and Somatic Space-Holder, Folk Wizard and Freedom Companion, Jae Gibbs.
