Scrying the Landscape III w. Elina Tapio & Hannah Pezzack
Flowing, seeping, leaking, cascading, shaping, ๐ด๐ถ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ณ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฅ. Displaced from terrestrial-based ways of knowing, Elina Tapio, together with Hannah Pezzack, plunges into oceanic depths. Immersed in this alien milieu, the weight and opacity of water transmogrify perception. To the human ear, noises appear muffled, foggy. But sound waves actually travel five times faster underwater than in air. Far from being a silent abyss, waterways are cacophonous: an orchestra of barnacles, sonorous wails and echoes.
The third instalment of 'Scrying the Landscape' features Markus J. Buehler and Jenna Sutela's (๐๐ฆ๐ต-๐ฐ๐ฏ-๐๐ฆ๐ต (2021), a sonic toolkit amplifying the emotive molecules of liquids. For ๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ต๐ฐ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐๐ค๐ฆ (2020) Hannah Rowan utilised a hydrophone to capture ancient air bubbles โ pockets of planetary deep time โ escaping from melting icebergs. And synthesist Stan Litjens' ๐๐ฆ๐ธ๐ข๐ต (2021) is an ambient interlude composed of field recordings; the lull of rocking boats and seabirds.
