Voices of the Rainforest
Voices of the Rainforest (2019): A composition by Steven Feld
Synposis: Voices of the Rainforest is a 70-minute eco-rockumentary, a cinema concert of a day in the life of the rainforest and the music it inspires for the Bosavi people of Papua New Guinea. The screening is followed by a Q&A with director Steven Feld.
Bio: Steven Feld is an anthropologist, filmmaker, musician, and sound artist. He is a Senior Scholar at the School for Advanced Research in Santa Fé, and Distinguished Professor of Anthropology Emeritus at the University of New Mexico. Feld's academic research principally concerns the anthropology of sound, a term he coined in 1972 to extend the anthropology of music and language into a more critical sensory and aesthetic focus on voice and poetics, all-species sound relations, media and technologies, and environmental and ecological acoustics.
Location: Peel Street Cinema, 3475 Rue Peel
