BU Sonic Arts presents an immersive multichannel concert of works from the Soundlapse Project, featuring works by Aki Pasoulas, Alejandro Albornoz, Brona Martin, Francisco Lopez, Pete Stollery, Rob Mackay and BU’s Ambrose Seddon. 

The Soundlapse Project (2019-22) is an interdisciplinary research initiative funded in 2019 by the Chilean National Agency for Research and Development. It seeks to highlight the acoustical heritage of wetlands in the south of Chile. 

The project brought together artists, acousticians, biologists and computer scientists with the aim of studying these ecosystems’ unique soundscapes. As an outcome of the project’s periodic documentation of the “Parque Urbano El Bosque” wetland soundscapes in Valdivia, in 2021 eight sound artists were commissioned to compose works using these field recordings.
