For me aurality is like an ecology, elements that work in unison to find and/or convey meaning through different mediums. I am particularly interested at the moment in aurality and sound as a medium of creation and communication with more than human worlds. The idea for this little piece was to start from scratch and feel sound in an embodied way. Noticing nature, recording it, 'composing it', making up digital sounds and moving to it. All of these form part of an ecological and plural way of thinking. Something I try to explore and understand with everything I make or do.

Digital Experiment No. 1

Improvising with a loop pedal, ukulele and voice to the embodied stories Rachel Elizabeth Coleman (incredible artist-activist!) and I shared during the early developments of our lovely work in progress titled 'The Caretakers'. Truly a magical spontaneous space we manage to submerge ourselves in. The devising process was full of feeling, and thanks to a little TASCAM recorder set up in a corner of the room we can share with you some beautiful little live gems of sound! This one is a bit more somber...
