Scheveningen Harbour
The Embassy of the North Sea seeks to give a voice to the non-human residents in The Netherlands’ most defining ecosystem, the North Sea, starting with a listening phase that engages designers, policy makers, biologists, artists, lawyers, philosophers and writers. Rewire 2021 will present the first step of the journey: a sound expedition titled ‘Hearing Like a Herring’, developed by composer and sound artist Harpo ‘t Hart together with radio-maker Jesper Buursink and artist Xandra van der Eijck. This intervention at Scheveningen harbour and beach features stories from experts, scientists, and local residents to present new undersea listening perspectives.
There will be a number of sessions running (see below), each lasting an hour. Reserve your timeslot here: https://www.eventbrite.nl/e/tickets-hearing-like-a-herring-by-embassy-of-the-north-sea-168935912863
