Eelektrosluching (Field Recordings)


Winter 2025
Glass eel plastic modelled shells, speakers, two channel audio (electromagnetic + hydrophone field recordings)
10 min looping audio, 6 in. diam. speakers

Exhibited at Anna Leonowens Gallery in Halifax, NS, as part of Net Works
Filed under INTERACTIVE, OBJECT, AUDIO
︎︎︎ Close up of speaker shells



This work presents two audio recordings taken from different recording devices, presented in two speakers that visitors can pick up and listen to. One uses a hydrophone, submerged in a stream of running water, and the other plays a recording from an electromagnetic microphone that translates oscillations in the electromagnetic field into audible sound that was taken walking through Halifax towards the water. Our electronic devices, such as computers or underwater data cables, interact with and affect the electromagnetic field. Eels (and other creatures) are able to perceive the Earth’s electromagnetic field and use it to navigate while migrating through the Oceans.
