SEQUOIA

• • • ​

When we enter a forest we can easily sense that something is hidden from our ability to observe and understand. It is something extraordinarily indefinable. We feel that it exists but we cannot grasp it. Sequoia wants to investigate and contemplate this “something” which we humans perceive in contact with trees, woods and forests, but we cannot define.

The music track created ad hoc contains the electrical information of a sequoia, that I sampled at a particular moment with PlantsPlay - a device that allows users to sample the trees biorhythms - and that the music composer reworked into sound.
