Dj Spooky, aka Paul D. Miller, is making ice sing. His new project, Terra Nova: The Antarctica Suite, aims to collect both live and inspired sounds of the rapidly melting ice of Antarctica. The project is being recorded from a mobile/portable studio that Miller is using to record across the various territories and geographies of the continent.

The production, coupled with visuals from Getty Images, lasts seventy minutes and creates a startling, resonant and harmonic portrait of man in nature.

See the trailer here.

I've been researching a lot about human culture in Antarctica recently and its quite surprising. They sre considerred the uberrockstars of the Ham radio scene due to their remote and sometimes nomadic existence. Many of the environmental protocols are extremely strict to avoid accidental introduction of nonindigenous species. Plus with all those penguins down there how could they not be cool? Of course they use a lot of Linux!
