Creative residency.

Residency awarded as part of the Phonurgia Nova Awards 2023.

Liquid Polyphonies is a sound composition that invites the listener on an acoustic journey through the polyphonic soundscape of the North Sea. Using sounds recorded during field research in the European parts of the North Sea (2022), Lotte and Gillis create an electroacoustic composition where marine life, technology, industry and science intertwine. 

In creating this piece, Lotte and Gillis reflected on the epistemological possibilities of sound and their own position in the field as recorders: What can sounds tell us about the socio-economic and ecological contexts of damaged landscapes? And what role do we play as field archivists?
