Soft garden, on the sounds of the undercommons. The research explores the relations between the embodiment of sound, spaces and resonance on the bases of communities as well as the individuals. An attempt to accent the voices of voiceless and their meanings in community building, as observing bio-acoustics as a source and note of community builder and binder.
Filipendula Ulmaria I picked on my field recording walks; I dried some of it and left behind at the residency house at Korpúlfsstaðir – for later residents to use, for making tea. Filipendula Ulmaria is known as natural resource for aspirin.
