Climate love

If you are hearing this, then your city is sinking

The Finnish City Lahti is Europe's Green Capital of 2021. Last week it launched the art installation Indisputable Case of Emergency (ICE) in Helsinki. The installation presents 13 cubes of ice melting as a reminder of the ongoing climate crisis. But more interesting, Lahti has collaborated with composer Cecilia Damström who created a musical piece named ICE and is performed by the world’s first carbon-neutral symphony orchestra, Lahti Symphony Orchestra. Its other specificity: ICE can only be listened to in the 100 cities in the world most under threat from sea-level rise based on your IP address >> https://greenlahti.fi/en/icemusic Can you hear this? Then your city is sinking. I personally cannot listen to the musical piece but apparently, that is how it sounds: "The 10-minute piece starts with a peaceful harp melody which intensifies quickly. As the song continues, powerful rhythms with contrasting harmonies can be heard: the piece sounds like our planet is fighting for its existence."
