Audyssey

Audyssey is a musical journey exploring climate solutions by composer Eduardo Del Signore with visual designer Angelo Chiacchio in collaboration with The ClimateMusic Project. It premiered privately at a World Economic Forum event in New York City in September 2022 and publicly at a New York Times/KQED Public Radio event in San Francisco in October 2022.

In 10-minutes, Audyssey introduces solutions that could limit future warming, and in doing so it draws from the IPCC’s Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5° C . It references scientific data and model projections for two future pathways, considering both mitigation and non-mitigation scenarios.

It also takes us on a musical and visual journey to landscapes and communities that can be saved or will disappear, depending on how we act in the short-term.

Finally, the piece is a meditation on the “human condition” that has precipitated the climate emergency and on the prospect for our species to rediscover a more balanced relationship with the rest of life on Earth.
