Antarcica music
Nov. 29th, 2009 06:40 pmI've been a casual fan of DJ Spooky for a long time but this really caught my attention. His most recent project was to go to Antarctica and be inspired by the sounds there. From his site: "In December 2007 and January 2008 Paul D. Miller aka went to Antarctica to shoot a film and make a large scale multimedia performance work that will be an acoustic portrait of a rapidly changing continent called Terra Nova: Sinfonia Antarctica. Sinfonia Antarctica transforms Miller’s first person encounter with the harsh, dynamic landscape of Antarctica into multimedia portraits with music composed from the different geographies that make up the land mass. It's about the environment, sound, hip hop, electronic music and what it means to be a composer in the 21st century."
There is an awesome article on it over here: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=120914418 I really want to listen to all of Sinfonia Antarctica.
