Split Solstice Record Now Online

In honour of the summer solstice, Split Solstice—a collaborative sound project between Nik Forrest and Owen Chapman—is now available online. I created the artwork for this double lathe-cut record, which captures very low frequency (VLF) signals recorded simultaneously in Gaspé, Quebec, and Lofoten, Norway, on June 21, 2022. These natural and technological electromagnetic sounds were exchanged, composed, and pressed onto a two-record set: one side featuring audio compositions, the other a selection of raw VLF recordings.
