The Hum

Funded by Immersive Arts

The Hum is an multispecies opera exploring how collaborative storytelling can inspire action in the face of perilous climate change.

Using Opera (deriving from Opus, meaning "to work") as a structure to expand upon Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing’s writing which suggests that in the midst of our climate emergency, recovery will be the ‘work’ of multispecies collaborations. 

Collaboration between Paul Rafferty, Mali Draper

Vocals by Andrew PM Hunt and Kate Smith
