Subkutan: Hippocampus and seagrass - discussion of an audiopiece

“The Second the Water Wets Your Face, Reflexes of Your Aquatic
Ancestors Kick In” is an audio piece that invites listeners on a
sensory journey where they get the chance to smell their own
brains, do a backflip in an egg yolk, or relax in an infinite bed
of seaweed. 


With this piece, the artists Erica Van Loon and Daniel Steiner
have created a unique soundscape which, thanks to its ASMR
character, allows you to travel through your own body and blur
the boundaries between human and environment.


In an interview with Alix Regenass, they talk about how they
recorded their digestion with microphones, developed their own
language for sound and finally what immersive soundscapes have to
do with empathy.
