The arts project takes recordings of Earth's natural radio sounds, normally not audible to the human ear, and stunning imagery captured at the Halley Research Station in Antarctica to create a 90-minute soundtrack set to piano. The resulting album, Aurora Musicalis, is released today.
Diana Scarborough combines the resulting soundtrack with original visual sequences - using photos and images captured at Halley.
"The Halley Research Station is located in the remote Brunt Ice Shelf. It's not only ideal for capturing these incredible sounds, but also stunning visuals, including spectacular auroras that light the horizons with bright and captivating colour,"
"These images provide an enthralling video for the soundtrack. They are also the perfect way for the human eye to soak in what the ear hears on this album.
"I was really inspired by the rich archive of images collected at Halley and knew they would be the perfect way of helping people 'see' the amazing sounds selected by Nigel (British Antarctic Survey) and the beautiful, mesmerising music composed by Kim. (Australian National University) "
Aurora Musicalis forms part of the 'Sounds of Space' project and is available for free on BandCamp.
