How can art empower us to tackle the climate emergency? Jamie Perera uses sound to deconstruct objects and data in ways that create provoking experiences for listeners, and Professor Melissa Nursey-Bray, a researcher from the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide, focusses on connecting community to environmental issues. They discuss how art and knowledge can converge to create pathways of awareness and deconstruction as we share the global challenge of how to face climate, colonisation and social justice crises. The conversation springs from Jamie's work, the immersive "Anthropocene in ÌýC major", a score that sonifies data from the Holocene to create a live experience of human impact on earth. Jamie works at the intersection of sound art and human impact issues such as climate change, social justice and decolonisation, and he and Melissa will discuss their journeys through the Anthropocene, and their experience of art, climate and hope.
