AMYGDALA
AMYGDALA is a poetic audiovisual film exploring the hidden voice of the Earth through sound, matter and memory.
Built from real sonic signatures extracted from soil collected across more than 200 countries, the film merges Earth-generated sound research by leif.e.boman, contemporary orchestral music by Bohdana Frolyak, and evolving visual compositions into a contemplative cinematic experience.
Rather than telling a story, AMYGDALA unfolds as a sensory landscape, inviting the viewer not simply to observe the world, but to listen to it.
