Their intention was to sonically capture this 2.5 billion year old geological structure. The two day recording initiative was focused on capturing space, vastness, stillness and reactions in the varied landscapes surrounding these rocks.
The project aims to provide a perspective for the world we inhabit, without making the human being the largest player in the game. Anchored in the rocky landscape of Ramanagara, Karnataka, an ancient geological site, this team is trying to give the rocks, the trees, the animals and the non-human life the role of protagonist in their stories, leaving man as a witness in the vast scale of space and time around him.
