The Misperception of Sound This three minute recording encapsulates a week of attempting to understand how sound relates to our work as a Deaf and hearing collective. The recording includes the sounds of fluent sign language, the sounds of learning sign language, dancers moving to the sounds of sensations, an attempt to dance in contact and signing at the same time, and a lunch time drill that typifies the constant sound pollution all around us. To get the full sensory experience the track is to be played on large speakers.

Anna Seymour Individual Contribution (Tier 8). Anna Seymour’s individual contribution for Tier 8 - Sound.
The Welsh collective created a sound collage from sound recording during the week. Anna is “interpreting” the sound recording in sign language (via a BSL interpreter off camera so there is a slight delay between the sound and Anna’s interpretation).
The sound recordings include the sound of Anna and her BSL interpreters having a conversation in BSL (which sounds like gossip), the sound of Jo, Gwyn and Anna communicating - or struggling to communicate as Jo and Gwyn aren’t fluent in BSL, the sound of Anna, Jo and Gwyn dancing blindfolded, the sound of Anna, Gwyn and Jo attempting to contact dance and have a conversation in BSL at the same time concluding with the sound of a drill outside the cafe.

Sound investigation suspended in air Investigation:
1) suspension, spinning, and bouncing a lamenting body in space
2) body free in air, bouncing
3) kulning (nordic herding call) and whale duet
-
Weekly process and investigation We experimented with sound through lamenting bodies spin, bounce, and drift through water, ropes, breath, and waves. Kulning, whale song, healing frequencies, meditation music, and Elvis weave a soundscape between grief and tenderness.

Bodies Hello, i love you

Hello, i love you 3min
0:00 – 0:15
Metallic breath in a centrifuge-like motion. A meditative tone fades in beneath. The sound is pressed, as if underwater.
0:15 – 0:30
Underwater textures surface. The metallic breath grows more intense, strained - a distorted lament. A voice enters, saying “hello.”
0:30 – 0:45
Whale sounds rise above the soundscape. A voice sings “I love you.” Pleasure and painful tones overlap. Another voice calls “yeah babe, it is crossing my nuts.” Layers stack on top of one another. Distortion rises under the voices, glitching like torn tape. Whale-like resonance stretches in long, sweeping tones. The atmosphere feels both human and oceanic.
0:45 – 1:15
Vocal fragments multiply — “hello”, “I love you.” Distorted moans and cries weave into the mix. Whales sustain long calls..
1:15 – 2:15
Elvis Presley sample enters: “Wise men say, only fools rush in, ’cause I can’t help falling in love with you” His silky, grooming studio voice contrasts with the raw surrounding layers. The texture thickens into a call-and-response between Elvis, whales, and distorted voices. Around 2:00, high sonodynamic frequencies emerge, shimmering. The track feels suspended between sea depth and human reach. On top of everything, siren-like crescendos and metallic breath drive the intensity.
2:15 – 2:45
Release: the dense layers thin. A voice speaks clearly — “that was really beautiful.” A distorted kulning (Nordic herding call) appears, stretched and metallic. Breath textures return, blending with whale tones.
