about

This is a compilation of highlights from the Sounding Nature project by Cities and Memory.

The sounds of our natural world – whether that’s the sound of forests and oceans or the animals that inhabit these environments – have been an essential part of the way we live for thousands of years.

But human activity, through urbanisation, climate change or rapidly-developing technologies, is endangering not just these sounds, but the very creatures that make them and the environments in which they live.

The Cities and Memory global project Sounding Nature is the first worldwide artistic reflection on our natural environment, as artists all over the globe recompose and reimagine the sounds of our natural world.
