As a gamer with a profound respect for the arts and a deep concern for our planet’s future, I can’t help but be captivated by Björk’s latest AI sound installation at Centre Pompidou. The interplay of nature and technology is not only a creative inspiration but also a call to action that resonates with my own life experiences.
Björk and the French artist Aleph will unveil an artificial intelligence-based sound installation at Centre Pompidou, as part of the four-day forum “Biodiversity: What Culture for What Future?”. This event, hosted by the Parisian institution, aims to highlight the escalating climate issues on our planet through a unique project called Nature Manifesto. This initiative gives voice to the world’s endangered and extinct species.
As I glide up through the museum’s ‘Chenille’ escalators, I find myself enveloped in a captivating installation. Its purpose? To forge a resonant link between the hum of industry and the symphony of lush ecosystems. Spanning three minutes and forty seconds, this experience transports you as you ascend or descend floors. The backdrop is an emotional tapestry woven from the cries of endangered creatures and rich textural soundscapes. And there, atop it all, stands Björk, delivering her urgent message: “The crisis is here, the apocalypse has already occurred, and what we do now is crucial.
The interplay between nature and technology has consistently served as a wellspring of creative inspiration for the Icelandic icon, driving her passionate dedication to environmental activism. The installation’s sea of cries reflects a desire for connection and showcases faith in nature’s resilience. In a recent post, she explains, “We aimed to remind citizens about the raw energy of endangered species. Just as these animals teach us through their intimate relationship with their environment, they serve as our instructors! Their spectral presence reminds us to cultivate our ancient awareness.
In this new project, Björk continues her decades-long dedication to environmental activism. Last year, she teamed up with Rosalía for the charity single “Oral,” which aimed to stop fish farm activities in Iceland. Lately, she’s also announced the launch of her upcoming concert film Cornucopia, centered around climate issues.
Nature Manifesto will be open to the public from November 20 to December 9, 2024.
