Underwater Listening
The Submerged Sounds website documents a multidisciplinary project that explores the acoustic ecology of underwater environments. It focuses on capturing and interpreting the sounds of submerged landscapes, highlighting their cultural, ecological, and phenomenological significance. The project investigates how underwater soundscapes reveal hidden aspects of marine and freshwater habitats, and how these environments intersect with human activity and history.
The site provides access to various audio recordings, field notes, and artistic interpretations related to underwater sound. It also includes research materials and contextual information about the technical methods used to capture subaqueous soundscapes. By situating underwater listening within broader environmental and cultural frameworks, Submerged Sounds contributes to the study of sound-based art and environmental humanities, emphasizing the role of sound in understanding submerged places.

Art Aia – Creatives In Residence
The website "artaiafvg.wordpress.com" serves as an online platform dedicated to Art-AIA FVG, an initiative centered on the intersection of art and nature within the Friuli Venezia Giulia region of Italy. It documents various projects, exhibitions, and events that explore site-specific and environmental art practices, highlighting collaborations between artists and local communities. The content includes detailed descriptions of artworks that engage with the region's landscape, promoting awareness of cultural heritage and ecological concerns through artistic expression.
The site also provides critical insights into the theoretical frameworks underpinning these art practices, referencing land art, eco-art, and walking art methodologies. By situating contemporary works within the unique geographical and cultural context of Friuli Venezia Giulia, it contributes to the discourse on how art can interact meaningfully with place. Additionally, the platform archives photographic documentation, maps, and essays, offering a resource for researchers and practitioners interested in the relationship between art, geography, and environmental awareness.
