Our fourth episode takes a look under the hood of what we understand as interference. We feature the work of German artist and experimental musician Carsten Nicolai to discuss analogies between water and sound, acoustical and aquatic waves. We hear from Hawaiian scholar and surfer Karin Amimoto Ingersoll about the art of attuning one’s body to the waves of the ocean and communicating with the elements. And we survey Western ideas of freedom and key experiments in modern physics to propose a new concept of interference, of acting and being acted upon, that reflects our world of human-made climate emergencies—a concept for which artists such as Nicolai provide intriguing models.

This episode is co-hosted by Emma Reimers and Lutz Koepnick.
