Lost Communication

Created by Electronic Musician, An-Ting, and Creative Technologist, Ian Gallagher, Lost Communications 失絡之聲 is a Live Audio-Visual Performance Immersing the Audience Deeply into the Light and Darkness of Nature.

A fundamental property of the natural world is interaction and communication. Every species in an ecosystem contributes to the harmonious symphony that it is a part of. We chose a long time ago to shut ourselves off from this, slowly at first, but with ever increasing speed, we have closed our hearts. We no longer hear the natural music around us.

Lost Communications 失絡之聲 is an exploration of art, nature, and technology. Travelling from the UK, through Mongolia, Sichuan, Hong Kong and Taiwan, Ian and An-Ting have recorded the songs of birds as the musical expression of the environments they found themselves in.

What might they tell us if we were able to hear?
