about

Le 17 mars 2000, un bout de glace d’une superficie de 11 000 km2 se décroche de la plateforme de Ross, la plus grande barrière de glace de l'Antarctique. Pendant 18 années, l’iceberg B15 dérive, se fragmente suite aux collisions, redessine les cartes des côtes antarctiques et empêche nombre d’espèces animales de se nourrir. Son dernier fragment, B15z, s'évapore définitivement au large de South Georgia, après un long voyage de 14 000 km.

Cette pièce sonore évoque les changements d’états de l’élément eau à travers l’histoire de B15, gigantesque bloc d'eau pure condamné à une longue et lente déliquescence.

------------------------------------

On 17 March 2000, an 11,000 km2 piece of ice broke off from the Ross Ice Shelf, the largest ice barrier in Antarctica. For 18 years, the B15 iceberg drifted, fragmenting as a result of collisions, redrawing the maps of the Antarctic coastline and preventing many animal species from feeding. Its last fragment, B15z, evaporated off the coast of South Georgia after a long journey of 14 000 km.

This sound piece evokes the changing states of the element water through the story of B15, a gigantic block of pure water condemned to a long and slow decay.
