Place, where I look for myself

"Reflects on how deep one can travel within sound in time, how amplified our perception of each element can become, how far it takes us in exploring unusual lands.  This piece merges together underwater recordings of ross seal “siren” and synthesised sounds  in order to magnify each particle of original sound source.  I choose to look closer on surroundings and shapes, accompanied noises, movements of the sound waves, texture, clicks and each element of the spectrum, therefore creating a statement : beauty is always taken for granted by humans, we must look closer and acknowledge challenges of modern reality."
