The project utilizes hydrophone technology to capture the subtle, complex soundscapes of Lake Erie's underwater ecosystems. The boat serves as a listening vessel that viewers are invited to enter into, acting as a grounding physical presence in the space. Underwater recordings, taken in the lagoons and wetlands of Presque Isle State Park (Erie, PA), are both heard and felt through the transducer speakers installed under the boat seats, which transmit sound through vibrations. Paired with immersive projected imagery of the surface of Lake Erie, the project roots these sounds in their precise time and place, offering an intimate, auditory journey into the lake's depths.
