We are delighted to share that Pale Blue Dot Collective was selected as one of 20 awardees to be supported by Lom, from 170 proposals from more than 50 countries around the world. We will be given a Lom Geofón microphone.
Geofón is a sensitive omnidirectional geophone adjusted for field recording purposes. Originally designed for seismic measurements, it can be used with regular field recording equipment to capture very faint vibrations in various materials and even soil.
We will use our Geofón mic to record the vibrations of and around the sea defences on the island of Great Britain. We will let the recordings dictate a process of composition, layering them with recordings from our catalogue of sounds from around the world. Our work will explore the urgency of our environmental situation and investigate how rising sea levels are and will continue to affect ecosystems in many different ways.
