Live Stage: Halsey Burgund @ MOS [
Boston, MA]
Ocean Voices by Halsey Burgund and Wallace J. Nichols :: July 30, 2010; 1:00 pm + 6:00 pm :: Museum of Science, 1 Science Park, Boston.
Ocean Voices is a collaboration between Boston-area sound artist Halsey Burgund and California marine biologist Wallace J. Nichols and features spoken-voice recordings from people around the world woven into a musical score for acoustic and electronic instruments performed by Burgund and his group Aesthetic Evidence. The voices have been collected via in-person interviews, an interactive website and an iPhone application.
Initially performed on June 3 at the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco to honor World Oceans Day and the 100th anniversary of Jacques Cousteau’s birth, this work aims to “open minds and expand awareness” about the world’s oceans.
Ocean Voices is co-presented by Artists in Context and the Museum of Science in conjunction with the Museum’s current exhibition WHALES|TOHORA.
