Music and Environment<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This gallery presents a variety of interpretations, mediations, and creative imaginings of environmental phenomena. Music and environment are both highly dynamic and troublesome words, and they mean very different things in different contexts. This gallery explores the contested conceptual terrain of music and of environment with particular curiosity on their intersections, their moments of co-habitation and co-creation. When, where are how do environments become musical? When does environment become music? When does music become environment? What does this entanglement sound<\/em> like? \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
