LaMont Hamilton Tells Alaska’s Story Through Sound

LaMont Hamilton’s sound installation To Hear the Earth Before the End of the World (2023) opens at Alaska’s Anchorage Museum, immersing visitors in sonicifications of the five planetary systems: the geosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. Building on years of research to gain “a ground-zero understanding of our changing Earth,” the American multi-disciplinary artist added a new chapter drawing on field recordings made during a 2022 residency with the museum.
