Songs of the Graceful Giants is an Audio Visual Interactive piece that's the outcome of the research on the whales of Salish coast, their migratory pattern and wondrous communications and echolocation. This piece also looks how co-habitting this earth with humans and waves of industrialization has affected their lives. The audience are led to a journey through the experience of the whales, living peacefully prior industrialization, the ongoing struggles of living with modern human, how they perceive the sound pollution in the ocean, and at end casts a vision of inter-species harmony. Sound conveys the world of whales, and visuals present the world of humans.
