Moth x Human
Southbank Centre, Purcell Room, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]Violinist and composer Ellie Wilson highlights the UK’s biodiversity decline in a multi-instrumental piece that harnesses data from moths to make immersive sound.
Moth x Human is a thought-provoking composition that highlights declining UK biodiversity. Moth activity data is sonified into emotive, immersive soundscapes, alongside acoustic instruments, field recordings, and electronics.
