Welcome to the Brittle Geometries/ Delicate Feedbacks digital gallery guide. Click on the images below to learn more about the graphic scores, sounds, and process.
Inspired by the 1989 New Yorker essay The End of Naturethis installation invites the viewer to experience a delicate and brittle end through the sounds of glacial dissipation and melt via tape loops. Field recordings and graphic scores were sourced from IMAX cinematographers, composers, climbers, and musicians. Is there a scaling back of this end? Together, can we rewind and slow the pace through our actions? Will we advance the ending through our collective choices?
