The "Coral Sonata- Expanded Riffs" with field recordings deep from the coral reefs, archiving sounds of coral bleaching and corals breathing, was commissioned by Art Sail Miami as "Sounds of Climate Change" in collaboration with Rescue A Reef and Konscious Kontractors, fighting back climate gentrification as a consequence of the Black Anthropocene as Kathryn Yusoff names it. Some of the corals are thought to be at least 4,000 years old and the ocean's oldest living organisms, our ancestors. We all come from the infinity of the ocean. Listening to the unknown space of the deep ocean, "Coral Sonata- Expanded Riffs" sounding unbound, in the Break of the coral riffs, resonating one another as One through solidary roots and breathing together through the coral rhizomatic reef.
