Update / Melting Soundscapes

Melting Soundscapes
"Melting Soundscapes" are soundscapes from a deep-time ecology hidden and encrypted within Thielpark in Germany. Localized in a topography created at the end of Earth's last ice age and in contrast to Berlin's urban expansion, the park holds within its microcosmos records and aspects of a long-gone past. By using a microphone as a magnifying lens, the work uses sound samples from the present-day park to speculate on long-lost sound ecologies or future ice-age sounds to come.

Micro/Macro SoSe2020
In an era when things of different scales connect on a 1:1 plane, a mere invisible micro non-organism is capable of holding the entire world’s breath, just as an image of the whole Earth and its melting ice cores alters the properties of a salt’s grain. Within the global network, both macroscopic and microscopic realities collide evermore frequently and rapidly; sometimes generating explosively positive changes, sometimes generating catastrophic ones. How does technology mediates this conundrum? How do we inspect both microscopic and macroscopic realities, and how are we to make use of the vast amount of data produced by it?
