Using environmental sounds captured with field and underwater microphones, Fin Wegener composes layers of ambient music that respond to and decorate his surroundings, revealing harmonies and rhythms that hide in the natural every day. These long-form decorations of natural soundscapes can underscore the wonder of a distant dusk chorus, or connect listeners to hidden sound worlds within bodies of water.
‘Hearing Now’ is a project by artist Finley Wegener that brings experimental music performance into collaboration with natural sounds.
Acknowledgments: ‘Hearing Now’ is a higher-degree research project facilitated by the University of the Sunshine Coast: School of Business and Creative Industries. The project is supported by and contributes to a body of research conducted by the Creative Ecologies Research Cluster led by Leah Barclay and Toby Gifford.
This event is part of Twilight Fridays at MAP mima that runs until 11 April 2025.
