Experience the museum through all of your senses. Join sound designer and artist Skooby Laposky for Earth Studies: Ancient/Future Sounds, a soundscape created in real time utilizing a pop-up garden teaming with ancient and future life. Create a work of art with natural and found materials in the Studio. And activate your tastebuds with a craft-your-own mocktail experience. 


About Earth Studies: Ancient/Future Sounds 

Earth Studies: Ancient/Future Sounds is a sound installation and “live mix” performance from artist Skooby Laposky in conversation with artist Katie Paterson’s olfactory piece, To Burn, Forest, Fire. Laposky will use his deep listening and biodata sonification practice to speculate on what the first forest and last forest on earth would sound like. 


Skooby Laposky (he/him) is a sound designer and artist based in Cambridge, MA and Hudson, NY. Through the use of biodata sonification, acoustic ecology and deep listening techniques, Laposky creates generative real-time sound installations, musical recordings, and live performances based on the dynamics of ecosystems that are often hidden or unconsidered. Recent work includes the public art project Hidden Life Radio and his ongoing site-specific project, Palm Reading, with LA-based guitarist Charles Copley. Palm Reading’s debut location releases were Malibu: Point Mugu and Joshua Tree on the Myndstream wellness music label. Upcoming location releases include Walden Pond and oases in Palestine and Israel. Hidden Life Radio was awarded NYFA’s Tomorrowlands Project Award in 2022 and broadcast in 2023 from New York’s Hudson Valley. Laposky was most recently a Luminary in the Neighborhood Salon program at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston.
