Walking with Water

The walkshop address the theme of walking as question by trying to answer the question of what do we become when we walk by, alongside and with water.

Sound walk
This post discusses the concept of Digital Ecology, exploring how technology can be critically adapted to support the natural world rather than harm it. It includes a sound walk piece created from digitally processed field recordings made at Mavrovo National Park, a mountainous area with an artificial lake near Skopje.

Digital and technology can indeed become control instrument to oppress nature and human beings, but it is up to us to adapt them critically to our human world. We no longer need to believe we are representing the real world of nature. A counter claim to the idea that technology is destructive in our relationship with the natural world would be the claim that technology helps us save the natural world. Although the digital and technology may play a role in the decline in the human relationship with the natural world, it is not completely destructive, as the issue may not be the technology, but rather how we use it. Adapting information systems to enhance planetary life is Digital Ecology.

This sound walk piece was made with elements of natural environment but digitally processed. The field recordings base of the track was recorded in Mavrovo national park, where I usually go for hiking and field recording. It is a national park 1,5h drive from the city of Skopje where I live, so it is a perfect occasion for a fast escape in the woods. It is consisted of a mountain massif with an artificial accumulation lake. The recordings were recorded during several nights by the lake and during rain.
