REWINDWILD

by Jack McNeill

A hopeful rewilding

Inspired by the pioneering soundscape ecologist Bernie Krause who explores the impacts of soundscapes on ecosystems, Rewindwild is a personal exploration into the sounds revealed by lockdown and how we might listen and respond to ‘noise’ returning to the Lake District. In a hopeful rewilding of instrumental and found sound projected into a future Lake District landscape, I wanted to explore the environmental and ecological benefits of returning swathes of our countryside back to nature.

Rewindwild plays out as a quarried cathedral of audio leaving space for the listener to be transported to the intricate, wild, tranquil and vast Lakes-spaces they know, imagine and negate by their ordinary presence.

Rewindwild was commissioned as part of Aerial 2020.
