I Will Be Water
«I will be water, drowning contours, a march of clouds, salt and shimmer, drowned by the waves.»
This quote is taken from the video «Atlantic Ragagar» by Gilles Aubry. The video is part of the Norient Online Special Sawt, Bodies, Species, a joint publication with adocs, extending Aubry’s physical book Sawt, Bodies, Species: Sonic Pluralism in Morocco into a digital publication with additional video and audio materials. The Open Access publication of this book was made possible with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF).
