Here Song connects users to place by encouraging them to scan the world around them and create one of a kind sound compositions to map the land. The practice of studying horizon-lines from which to create sonic experience and melody was developed by Cannupa Hanska Luger’s ancestors, the people of the Northern Plains tribes of North America. This “singing the horizon” connected them to place and reinforced their relationship to the land.
Here Song was created by artists Cannupa Hanska Luger and Ginger Dunnill with funding from Flux Projects, an organization that produces public art projects to connect and grow artists and audiences through the creative power of place.
In developing this project Luger and Dunnill invite a selection of leading Indigenous composers and musicians to create sounds for the application, allowing the user to engage with the artists’ work while weaving new sonic stories that engage directly with the land.
