‘The whispering cave’ harnesses illegibility to provide a platform for recounting private experiences without the fear of being judged. As you whisper into the hole, live sound software translates your voice through the frequencies emitted by the earth, echoing your words back in a language only you can understand…



Deep within the rock, a cave hums with geological energy -
Carrying stories of flesh, leaf and root -
The reverberations of the ecosystem
Repeating, metamorphosing for those who will listen.

Kneeling at the whispering hole, you are invited to share,
To recount your story into the ear of the cave.
Listen - Can you hear it murmur through the rock,
Echoing your words in its own mystical tongue?
Gain new understandings of personal experiences
As your human voice is translated into the language of the earth -
The frequencies carried by mineral forms and structures.
This exchange with the earth grounds us in its ebbs and flows
To develop a deeper empathy for the land we come from.

Welcome introspection without fear of judgement.
This cave is your refuge and confidant.
