A cacophony of anthrophonic, biophonic, and geophonic sounds co-opt iconic images of the natural world we have come to expect in the traditions of both landscape photography and documentary film. Visual knowledge is disrupted by failed attempts at inscription and their rapid dissolution. Spatiotemporal scales collapse in on themselves in a discomforting combination of extraction, technology, and erasure. How can we ever be consoled for such continual losses?

Installation work featuring 2-channel video, 8-channel sound, hand-drawn animation using site-sourced charcoal, and muscovite mica. Dimensions variable.

Made possible in part with financial support from the PROP Foundation Artist Grant program.

Also available in single-channel video/stereo configuration for traditional screening. To view this version in full, contact Ramey.
