Audiences to this work will discover the many narratives created by human experiences of nature in a hybrid writing with AI, along with forest soundscape recordings from within Natura 2000 sites. To achieve the current version of the installation, a citizen engagement workshop took place in the Glengarriff Harbour and Woodland Natura 2000 site (Ireland) with a local community.
- Materials: The physical materials used to build the entire installation space will include recycled sheet plastic collected from the community (JRC campus and the town of Ispra). The plastic will be ironed together to make large plastic sheets. These sheets will be used to build the plastic inflatable structure (the interior of which will become the experienced installation space). The scale and design of the installation space will be dependent on the amount of community plastic consumption and collaboration.
Pollution, contamination, forever chemicals…What have we done?! OMG! I need a glass... Welcome to the Haunted Waters Bar—a growing collection of contaminated waters.
Each metronome has a light emitting rod that will be moving and pulsating in different frequencies like a normal music metronome. All metronomes can be controlled from a central microcontroller. At the begging all metronomes stand without motion. Then the data from the global temperature rise per year will start to feed the installation and one by one the metronomes will start to operate (moving, emitting light and ticking). As the global temperature will rise, the metronomes will be oscillating faster in higher frequencies. At some random point all metronomes will stop immediately.
