Deceitful Luxury
Duration: 15 minutes
Deceitful Luxury is a meditation on geophony (atmospheric sounds created by non-biological forms of nature) and biophony (sounds produced by organisms). By incorporating elements of live performance, sample manipulation, and sound processing, we have sought ways to respond to, work with, and even collaborate alongside, the field recordings we have captured. By attending to these sounds in this way, we hope to have engaged with one of the central themes of this course: the work of actively listening to planetary life.
