Sound as medium for connection and collective memory – creating forms new digital shared ritual – new intuitive expressions of technology and data can help us connect with important socio-cultural abstract concepts such as climate change

Exploring sonic environments where time and space blur, identity, community, and environment intertwine- how data sonification and sound design can help us connect beyond definable contexts to understanding the vast, interconnected systems that shape our existence.

A deep spiritual connection involves an intuitive reading of vast currents of information that bypass the rational. Data, when sonified, becomes more than just a tool for analysis; Information becomes a feeling.  We create new forms collective experience—one that synchronises with the natural rhythms of life and the greater flow of existence. 

Spatial sound  transforms listening into a fully embodied experience, where sound moves not just around but through the listener, dissolving the boundary between perception and environment. By sculpting frequencies in space, the work creates shifting auditory dimensions, guiding the audience into deeper states of altered perception—where vibration is not only heard but physically felt, immersing them in a fluid, ever-evolving sonic architecture.

Connecting the ancient with technology

Traditional instrumentation and text can give a “human” relational context, and contrast to abstract sound design.  

Storytelling as an ancient way of encoding memory, wisdom, and identity across generations. Words when used in an impressionistic form, allow meaning to unfold fluidly rather than linearly. It invites audiences to engage in intuitive meaning-making, activating both personal and collective memory.
