Singing Water arose from my fascination with the profound effects of sound on all aspects of the natural world. Research explored the science of cymatics and the presence of mathematical ratios in the natural world, Indigenous Songlines and the non-material substructure of Country, and the ability of Country to be conscious. Alongside engagement with our co-creators, Twofold Aboriginal Corporation, the proposal developed into an alteration and additions extension of their existing mud brick office with specific focus on a self-sustaining water cycle. This co-envisioning process raised the ultimate question; how can a comprehensive understanding of Country influence the built environment to give autonomy to both the community and the bioregion in which it is located?
