Anthropocene Mixtape: Owl Edition1/31/2025 Thank you Cinereach for the interview and write up featuring Anthropocene Mixtape: Owl Edition, my immersive installation in Grand Rapids for ArtPrize in September, 2024!
Cinereach "is a not-for-profit story incubator pioneering new ways of developing and producing compelling, popular entertainment designed to shift culture and build momentum for change." They "believe in the power of stories — in film, television, podcasts, video games, graphic novels, social platforms and across all media — to shift perspectives and open hearts." I was invited to a few listening sessions by Cinereach via Good Energy as an expert to help shape their understanding of an issue at hand and inform our creative direction. It was a rich experience and I am honored to be in conversation with them! Good Energy is a nonprofit story consultancy for the age of climate change. They "support TV and film creators in telling wildly entertaining stories that honestly reflect the world we live in now—a world that’s in a climate crisis. [They] aim to make it as easy as possible to portray the climate crisis on-screen in entertaining and artful ways, in any storyline, across every genre." "Take the artist Sarah Filley, for example. As a regenerative futurist, we thought her deep understanding of how climate change affects the design of urban spaces would be an excellent perspective to have while thinking about stories we could tell during our Climate Visibility Project last year. A few months after the project concluded, Sarah shared that her experience led to the creation of the Anthropocene Mixtape, a series of immersive soundscapes that seeks to reconstruct lost ecological abundance. The Owl Edition launched at ArtPrize in Grand Rapids, Michigan and reimagined what a moonlit stroll along the waterfront would sound like if the owl population hadn’t declined by 90% since 1970."
