Sounding the Monsoon brings together scientific
understandings of climate change with everyday experience through creative
strategies that explore changing human-ecological-monsoonal relations in the
Indian Ocean region. Through digital modes of collaboration, we will be testing
the potential of dialogues between sound, music, photography, film and climate
mapping to explore how the monsoon is changing, and how human and non-human
lives are changing with it. The geographic focus of this SSRC Transregional
Collaboratory on the Indian Ocean Planning Grant project is on Ilha de
Moçambique, the culturally and ecologically important island in the Nampula
Province of Mozambique.
The outputs of the are from the phase 1 of The Social Science Research Council (SSRC), Transregional Collaboratory on the Indian Ocean; an independent, international nonprofit, mobilizes necessary knowledge for the public good by supporting scholars worldwide. The programme seeked to support novel modes of engagement and transdisciplinary research through supporting locally situated researchers in the Global South, with resources to coproduce knowledge alongside international peers.
4D Island were tasked with mapping and animating climate data to support sounding and knowledge insights from the teams video artists, musicians, social scientists and researchers. With the aim of contextualising’s and climatically realising new insights on social, economic and political dynamics interlinking across the Indian Ocean in the context and the relevance of climate and environmental change and monsoonal rhythms.
