Anyone who has joined a litter cleanup with Friends has seen their fair share of foam containers, plastic bottles, bags, and other waste polluting our waterways, so we’re here to tell our elected officials about the urgent need to stop plastic pollution from reaching our rivers, lakes, and streams. From the Chicago-Calumet River system to coastlines across the country, communities are demanding action on the growing plastic crisis. Cleaner waterways start with stronger upstream solutions.
Thank you to Environment Illinois for helping shine a light on the growing microplastics crisis and the urgent need for stronger plastic reduction policies, public education, and collective action. Photo Credit: Environment Illinois
I’m not usually making beats, but I loved the idea of contributing field recordings and environmental sounds as a way of collaborating across different practices and approaches to sound. The audio in this clip comes from a single simultaneous recording using a mix of different microphones. I had an Audio-Technica BP4025 stereo microphone rigged to my Zoom F8n Pro mixer alongside a JrF d-series + hydrophone and two LOM Geofons.
The first section of audio is an XY stereo recording from the BP4025 microphone facing the confluence point of the river, and the second section was recorded using a JrF d-series + hydrophone made by lowered directly into the river between a few rocks.
The third section is audio from the geofon’s attached to a metal fishing platform, recording vibrations moving through the structure and the resonance of the river itself (North Branch of the Chicago River). The ending combines all of the recordings together, and listening to the different frequencies interact created some curious harmonies and exchanges.
Spending time listening to and documenting various parts of the Chicago River has been an interesting way to get to know the Midwest. It’s become a way of learning more about the layered histories, ecologies, infrastructure, and relationships connected to the river, while paying closer attention to the built and natural environments around it.
