Abstract:
The paper discusses the early stages of the development of a methodology for co-creating artistic acoustic ecologies with the Great Lakes. It explores some initial philosophical, technological, creative/musical, and ethical concerns involved in my PhD research-creation project entitled: “Sounds Like Music, To Me.” In the paper, the artist askes how we might come to understand these bodies of water as animated actors in their own rights, with their own unique subjectivities. In doing so, he hope to facilitate a greater understanding of human impact on, relationships to, and responsibilities toward the lakes and all other waters.
