4 soundscape narratives for the Narrated Liquid Contaminants Installation (NYUAD, 2021), with binaural panning. 
--
Narrated Liquid Contaminants is a 15-speaker sound installation divided into 4 zones, each following a theme of contamination; from E-waste to human-caused pollution, naturally caused contamination, and viral contaminants.
Each zone has dedicated contaminated bottles with touch sensors at the bottom which once triggered, initiate visual projection and soundscapes. The audience then interacts with photoresistors on the bottles by casting a shadow over the projection, altering the soundscapes of curated field recordings.

To mark World Oceans Day 2021, we partnered with Concentric Records, TBA-21-Academy and Ocean Archive for a full day of broadcasts based on and inspired by sounds from the oceans.

 The incredible Ocean Archive is a sound library of the seas and harbours of the world, from Galapagos to the North Atlantic. It includes many types of whale, fish, earthquake, seismic explosions, methane seeps, tectonic plates and deep water drilling.

 The artists invited to make broadcasts based on this archive are Jake Muir, Izabel, Beluga, Carl Michael von Hausswolff / Dark Morph, Baby Vulture, Terrence Dixon, Jana Winderen reporting live from the seas, and finally Refuge Worldwide programmer Richard Akingbehin.

"After 12 Collective proudly presents 'The Inception,' our inaugural album capturing the evolution of our musical journey. 

This release is an anthology of spontaneous jam sessions meticulously (or luckily) recorded across the collective's timeline, offering a sonic odyssey from our humble beginnings.

Immerse yourself in the authenticity of live recordings, where each track encapsulates the unfiltered energy of our collective's early jams and dynamic live performances. Crafted predominantly on hardware equipment, especially modular synthesizers, 'The Inception' takes you on a visceral exploration of sound.

A testament to pushing boundaries and embracing the unpredictable in the vast landscape of electronic experimentation.

This track was a submission for the project Music For Sleep by Cities and Memories. It was based on working with field recordings by someone across the world, to make your own composition representing the concept of sleep musically. 

As described by the authorst: 
"Music for Sleep is a worldwide collaboration between artists and field recordists to create a unique collection of compositions specially designed for rest, sleep and tranquillity. 
There are more than 280 compositions and recordings covering 41 countries in an incredible range of artistic styles. Each composition is a reimagined piece inspired by and including the original field recording as source material"
