In My Language

While my research has been mainly focused on understanding the humpback whale and its form of sonic logic, I’ve come to realize that my own species has variations of perception and communication that I can’t even begin to imagine.
Often while composing I play with the idea of inhabiting an alternate biology, re-visioning my music to fit a human with 6 fingers instead of 5, or playing with the idea of extending our hearing range or rhythmic acuity. I have to wonder tho, how I would write music for the creator of the video below? How would my music need to sound to fit into her world?
