Ear to the Earth 2007: Explorers of the Wild
On Thursday October 18, at 8:30pm, EMF presents the fifth event of Ear to the Earth 2007, Explorers of the Wild, with presentations by artists Julia Calfee and David Monacchi, moderated by Mark Moffett.
In the winter of 2001, Julia Calfee accompanied a household of 8 people, 29 reindeer, 35 horses, and 3 dogs on their annual 21-day migration through remote, rugged mountains, without compass or maps, from southern Siberia to summer grazing grounds near Lake Hovsgol in northern Mongolia. Julia Calfee will introduce and discuss her video of this trip, noting the sounds of reindeer pawing the snow for grass.
Also in 2001, with the support of Greenpeace, David Monacchi, composer and sound artist, researcher in acoustic ecology, travelled to the Brazilian Amazon to collect sound samples from the equatorial rainforest. From 30 hours of extraordinary sound recordings, he composed the electroacoustic opera Fragments of a Sonic World in Extinction. Monacchi will present and discuss his Amazon journeys and the sounds that came from them.
