In June Gill was invited as a guest artist for
Murmuraton , an International gathering
of sound artists at Gulabin lodge, Glenshee. Gill led a walk and gave a talk about her work and also the folklore in
Glenshee, including a conspectus viewpoint from Diarmid's Grave.

Gill has been working with Alec Finlay on conspectus
viewpoints-the panorama of hills ( or other features ) that can be seen from a particular viewpoint .
Typically they are have located at significant
places such as ancient sites of dwelling, for instance, river confluences, or
on knowes and cnocs, rather than on high summits.
