Samur Khouja / Conscious Summary
Installation On-site June 3rd:
Blue Peril Sonification
Blue Peril Sonification is a multi channel audio and video installation bringing attention to the destructive deep sea mining proposed in the Pacific. Blue Peril tracks the toxic sediment particles that will ultimately kill endemic and undiscovered sea life in the pacific and will have massive environmental impacts. For this installation I will be using the particle and sediment tracking data as a sound source and controller for custom hydrophone recordings of the Pacific Ocean and video projection. 4 audio channels and two video channels.
