 Whispering tales of an island that appears serene yet harbours hidden disturbances, spectral hostilities. Plagues of ticks and microplastics overlaid with psychic memories of the oppressed and abandoned. A haunted island covered by soft green mosses, lapped by gentle brackish waves. Whether invaded by crabs, humans or ticks, the island continues its slow and steady rise above the shallow waters, unperturbed. The biological time of generations intersects with the slow time of tectonic forces. Fluttering, struggling, change, fragility and adaptation in a micro-zone of intensity, amid its post glacial rebound.  Whispering tales of an island that appears serene yet harbours hidden disturbances, spectral hostilities.

-The soundscape is composed with FoAM's field recordings made on Seili during the spring of 2019 and sonification of data collected at The Archipelago Research Institute over several decades. The time series used in the sound walk include oceanographic data (such as temperature, salinity,  presence of chlorophyl, and oxygen levels) of the sea surrounding the island. 
- 
-With thanks to Taru Elfving and the CAA for their continued support; Katja Mäkinen for the time series data, ARI sharing their wealth of knowledge and infrastructure during our residency on the island; Kalle Hamm and the Band of Weeds for their recordings of plants.

 When you start the playback take a few moments to experiment with listening at different volumes. You should be able to hear the recorded sound as part of the current soundscape on the island, so it's best not to use noise cancelling headphones.  When you start the playback take a few moments to experiment with listening at different volumes.
