ONE MINUTE WONDERS #10 – COSMIC ROCKPOOL

Cosmic Rockpool was originally created for a Music Weeklies Challenge . Rockpools are tiny micro Otherworlds, like distant planets with their own environments, terrain and life. Here, there are limpets, anemones, winkles, barnacles, tiny crabs and many varieties of seaweed. With the main field recording of the rockpools and seafront near where I live as a base, I added sounds to represent the tide turning, washing into the pools and the cosmic otherworld that’s full of life and colour, being tossed about by the incoming waves.

For this one minute wonder, I created a cosmic kaleidoscope from an original film clip I shot of the local rockpools.

As with most of my work, it’s best listened to through headphones.
