Laughing fishes gave me a lift

A sonic meditation on the vastness of the white expanse on the Yukon River, the punctual yet overarching human presence in this landscape, the dialogue between a personal, physical relationship that one is bound to have by living on this land and the unfading notion of a romantic wilderness associated with it. Laughing Fishes was initially conceived as a sound piece, a convolute of daily recordings made by going out onto the ice of the Yukon River; the images followed. The film sound was conceived as a spatial mix, i.e it can be shown on a spatial speaker setup.
