Sound Ecology
Ecological sound has become more of a focus in recent years. Many works now include soundtracks that use field recordings. Acoustic Ecology, for me, is an artistic use of natural sound. Natural sounds are captured, transformed and framed in a new light from the original environment from which they came. I like to think that I am preserving sound-worlds, and subsequently fostering the emotional – the tangible – connection to sound vis-à-vis artistic transformation.
