Inspired by the natural world, using water as a medium for generating sound. Drops fall intermittently into an aluminum can, and each impact sets off a sound. The clouds in the projection are tied to local weather: humidity shapes their density, while wind speed and direction guide how fast and which way they drift. The work shifts continuously, no two moments are quite alike.
