Trajectories

Phil Mouldycliff was contacted by Dave Carson with a view to making a work based on the unique wildlife of this very isolated island in the Pacific Ocean. This resulted in Phil visiting the island to absorb the environment & make many hours of field recordings. The final work will be an audio-visual show designed to be shown in domed structures & planetaria. The field recordings were taken back to IC Studio where Phil & Colin Potter processed them & mixed them with female voice and piano interpretations of birdsong. As unlikely a this sounds, the end result is an album which sounds simultaneously electronic/synthetic & natural. Hopefully this conveys the nature of the island from an unusual tangent.
