9/11

A fumarole at Lassen Volcanic National Park

The sound I have chosen was recorded with a WL-183s, easily imagined as an underwater eruption in the midst of creating an island. The sound creates a bubbling image in my head far before the image of volcanic activity. The eruption of bubbles in my chosen image creates a fantastical approach of cooled magma reaching the surface of the water and releasing non-threatening balloons of magma and ash into the atmosphere at daybreak to travel away from the predisposed location of the volcano to an undisturbed area of the ocean awaiting natural change.

Imagining a world evolving naturally on such a disastrous day is a refreshing way to remember the man-made destruction of man-made structures creating such a negative evolution of our world.
