White whale in the Red Sea

"The Red Sea is a place with such rich history and significance, it felt overwhelming to try and encapsulate it fully. The field recording reflected to me an origin point. I imagined some type of primordial soup. The biodiversity that bubbles up and flourishes in the red sea despite the salinity feels like an overlooked triumph of nature. I wanted to layer the beautiful sounds of life within the red sea with the noise of trade ships, the voice of human history and the fragility of a place that is both crucial to global exchange and a balance of power.  "The title is a nod to the relentless pursuance of something that cannot be controlled or taken, the inherent divinity in nature and the land itself." Red Sea soundscape, Egypt reimagined by Aemi Kato-Cuarezma.
