A project that explores bodies of water both inside and out. The downloadable audio keys the listener into internal body sounds and the sounds of the largest bodies of water on the planet: the ocean. Occasional sounds of protesters marching through interweave in the soundscape, as if still present in the Plaza which is used as a massing site for UN protests. The audio is punctuated throughout with the haunting gong sound of various navigation buoys that were hit and left to resonate.
