Research Question

Katja did a lot of research on (natural) sound and will work on the experimental research project ‘Unknown Grounds (work title) during the Sanctuary period. She investigates the impact of bombes, mines and other (chemical) weapons that were dumped after the First and Second World War, and what the consequences are for man and nature of what remains after a war. With ‘Unknown Grounds’ she wants to dive deeper into (underwater) noise pollution and experiment with how sound can be visualized.
