Coastal Infrastructure as a sonic object Minji Kim, 2022 With ‘Reshaping t/dunes’, Minji aims to research acoustic communication between coastal infrastructure and the ecological environment when re-shaping dunes on the coast that have been eroded by environmental influences. Minji's research covers three main areas: The principal question she is investigating with this project is how coastal infrastructures work as sonic objects, and how do these sonic objects reflect and transform the ecological conditions of the local environment? How can a site-specific musical instrument be designed? Her research sets out from the question how sound/music can be more directly related to ecology beyond simply making field recordings of environmental sounds, which are then consumed as an artistic/musical piece. Can sound/music affect ecology and positively contribute to a better ecological environment? Then, she discovered ZM and observed a possible connection between it and Cymatics' artistic experiments utilizing unique acoustic and terrain patterns. Therefore, Minji wanted to see what kind of sound/music can emerge when sands are moved by natural energy and if she can create an instrument that appropriates ZM’s mechanism that can be played in a site-specific manner.
