Community events

EarthSonic Community Events are designed to empower individuals and groups to organise their own local events as a call to action for the climate crisis, utilising the powerful mediums of music and the arts. These events can include concerts, workshops, presentations, exhibitions, film screenings, and other creative gatherings that aim to raise awareness, educate, and inspire communities to engage with and address the climate crisis.

We hope that community events happen throughout the year, but we would love a focus on events during Earth Month, which takes place each April. Your activities will be amplified via our channels, with some featured on our live broadcasts worldwide.

AFTERLIFE AT ANNEXA CCBB_MOVIMENTOS MIMÉTICOS

Saturday, 26 April 2025

Feira Ponto no CCBB

A new audio-visual work, Afterlife by Laima Leyton, Iggor Cavalera & Antonio Cavalera, will be presented at this year’s Anexa CCBB_Movimentos Miméticos, in partnership with In Place of War and Semana Internacional da Música de São Paulo – SIM SP.

Afterlife asks the question; Will data and technology ever be truly more significant than nature and species? For the creation of this audio-visual work, the artists and musicians created a dreamy yet dramatic feeling of a fading nature.

Using the track Afterlife from EarthSonic’s album The Last Scream, which featured the sounds of the endangered Black-cheeked Gnateate and Yellow-green Grosbeak from EarthSonic’s Sounds Archive, video artist Antonio Cavalera developed a method for processing images according to the sound for this beautiful installation.
