Subacuática is a live sound performance created from recordings made by participants in the workshop “Submerged Sounds.” The workshop offers a listening and sound exploration experience designed for family audiences. Through a journey across different spaces near the sea, we experiment with underwater microphones to discover new sounds: underwater soundscapes. The piece combines melodic, rhythmic, and ambient moments to shape a constantly evolving sonic landscape. It is an invitation to pause, listen, and be carried away by the hidden textures of the underwater world, giving value and visibility to sounds recorded collectively.

Beirut Birds (طيور بيروت) is a sonic memory capsule honoring (inter)personal stories of migration, displacement, and the cyclical turbulent circumstances in Lebanon. Transforming her multi-year project, multidisciplinary artist and composer Nour Sokhon crystallizes the performance Beirut Birds (طيور بيروت) into her long-awaited debut album. When presented and performed live, it is accompanied by juxtaposed images of the Lebanese capital’s city life and avian migration across the Mediterranean Sea, representing themes strongly woven into the music.
