What is it like to commune with the ground? To turn your senses downwards – using experimental and electrical devices as portals to the underworld?
For Grand Union’s September First Friday you can sign up for a one-to-one session, to spend as short or as long a time as you please, attempting to hear the subsonic frequencies in the earth. This is an offer to transduce, turning one form of energy into another by way of wires, minerals (extracted), amplification and vibratory matter. To see if we can tune into the micro sounds communicating with themselves beyond human perception and the everyday noises of the city.
Soils are and hold mutable spaces, constantly shifting and changing over time. They have a genesis and a lifespan. They originate from rocks transformed over millennia by climate conditions, geological movements, biological processes, and the actions of organisms, at all scales. Soils are the product of highly complex relationships. They are both living and non-living.
This is a free event but booking via Eventbrite is essential. The sessions are designed to be one-to-one with Michelle Atherton, but please get in touch if you’d prefer to book as a pair.
