Hinsawdd is a sonification of quantitative and qualitative climate data. Using land and surface temperature, the compositional space is spectrally framed via six voices warping into dissonance following the increase in global heat. Within this space unfolds text to speech press statements from companies responsible for the rise in carbon emissions, structurally informed by patterns in the layout of their climate press kits. As the beating pulse of the bass gradually ticks marking the years going by, the textures of token stats and false promises of change dissolve into to looming industrially charged Anthropocene.
Hinsawdd was first premiered at the 32nd Mantis Festival (2021).
