at aphotic depths: a sandy borehole, a whirring gull

Arieh Frosh and Ed Compson are independent artists who work collaboratively on socially engaged, technologically-driven projects. Since 2020, their ongoing series of artworks, workshops, and research experiments have involved technologies that might only become visual through translation, from seabed scanning, to electromagnetic listening, to recording wind speed. They do this to engage with a world that operates — and is made operational — through non-visual means, with visual and material effects. This approach, combined with a critical employment of fiction and an experimental use of tools, allows for a questioning of how machine and ecological thinking operate, interpellate us, and affect imagination.
