Sounds of un_identified subaquatic creatures (insects, crustaceans,fish etc) and moving vegetation recorded in Mamori, Amazonas, Brazil_nov.2009 by Slavek Kwi.

Tonal and electronic-like sounds omnipresent in this selection seem to be triggered by the bio-electric field of electric fish; signals were detected underneath floating grass ("capi"), seldomly in open water.

Recorded as it is_no other transformation and no added sounds;
however, the question is: is the sound interesting in itself or because the sound is generated by electric fish? or both?

Equipment: hydrophone crt c55 & sound devices 722

Recorded during Mamori sound project_residency
organized by Mamori Artlab www.malab.net

Slavek Kwi acknowledges the generous support of the arts council in making this project possible www.artscouncil.ie
