The Well

The Well created by Thomas Haighton. 

"The original source material used to create the sounds was an audio recording of a chunk of ice being thrown into a deep hole - reminding of the well and the field of ice in Dantes inferno. 

"The source material is processed in different ways to create a noisy soundscape. The piece sounds ominous and meditative at the same time. The piece gets more distorted as time passes which make it feel like a journey getting tougher."

Part of the Inferno project to imagine and compose the sounds of Dante’s Hell, marking the 700th anniversary of The Divine Comedy. To find out more, visit http://www.citiesandmemory.com/inferno
