TESTIMONIUM is an ongoing project created by Jacob Kirkegaard from recordings of waste, recycling, and wastewater facilities around the world.
With vibration sensors placed inside endless piles of organic waste and on massive incinerators, hydrophones lowered in wastewater and heavily contaminated rivers, and acoustic microphones pointed at metal, glass and plastic sorted by hand or machine, TESTIMONIUM listens beyond the immediate stench from discarded matter and into its physical core and industrialized journey.
An acoustically detailed powerful bittersweet homage to the midden of civilization and testimonial for the future.
