In times of ecosystem distress, pollinatorDiplomacy#2 approaches a topic dear to the European Union and a key driver for a diverse and thriving environment: pollinators.
This piece presents a journey in three acts:
Act 1 A Natural World (in Distress)
Act 2 Disagreement | Crowds, deforestation & fire
Act 3 Revolution | Awareness. Swarm.
The sonic journey can also be lived independently, with spatial audio features in mind so you can feel the bees really about to enter your ears! There is no need to kill them; just leave them be.
-
pollinatorDiplomacy#2 is a visual and sonic journey that takes the audience into green, peaceful natural areas only to be suddenly disturbed by human action.
