The ‘Belly Of The Whale‘ project is conceived together by
Interspecies and Greenmuseum
Together, Interspecies and Greenmuseum compiled a sample CD of 350 original underwater sound samples – sound samples of creatures including orcas, dolphins, beluga whales, sperm whales, humpback whales, Weddell and Bearded seals, lobsters, shrimp and water – and sent this samples as source material out to composers, musicians, and artists, to use this source material – the same material used by each artist – to compose electronic music with it. 19 composers responded with compositions:
Channel Crossing II – Jayne Fenton Keane
Club Delphinapterus – LapCore
Cetacean Somnolence – Yannick Dauby
Realtime Interspecies Music – Jim Nollman
Ricochet – Scanner
Anti-Japanese Whaling Song – Merzbow
Green – Christina Delia Giustina
Belly Up – Stephen Vitiello & Drew Edwards
Pelagic Cycle -Janus Kober
Moby Dick Dives In The Ocean’s Dreams -Thanos Chrysakis
Inside The Whale – David Rothenberg
Whale Belly Sound System -John Hanes
Dolphinator – Archive [aka Mike Hallenbeck]
Detritus In The Wake – Homer Smith
Navigator – Petri Kuljuntausta
Unexplored Depths – Nathan McNinch
Briny Claws – Kim Cascone
What’s most compelling about this project is the thoughtful way that the artists have listened and responded, both individually and as a community, to the sounds of our underwater environment
