"Human Savagery" pairs Bible’s powerful & moving, symphonic ambient compositions with his vivid ultra-HD aerial cinematography – which contrast the alien beauty of untouched mountains and desert landscapes with the chemical violence of EPA Superfund sites ravaged by industry. Bible has visited sites across the United States to create this footage, capturing a gripping snapshot of humanity’s often unseen footprint on this planet.
Presented not only as a static film "Human Savagery" is available to be presented as a dynamic and semi-generative multi-channel audio-visual surround sound installation, live performance, and photography exhibition.
The immersive, other-worldly sounds and lush and majestic imagery in "Human Savagery" by Jeremy Bible enter the body's cells and vibrate the heart and mind. To experience this performance is to be transported to an alternate world within the existing world.” - Laura Bidwell / Transformer Station

Jeremy Bible is an American transdisciplinary artist focused on the intersection of sound and light. Taking cues from his background in field recording and photography, his work occupies a shared space between multi-channel audio-visual installation and compositional practice. Utilizing acousmatic sonic diffusion techniques, Bible strives to construct an environmental experience that is at turns profoundly sensory and beautifully surreal.
Through a fusion of angular electronics and immersive ambience, Bible invites listeners to explore an eco-futurist environment that challenges the established topographies of time and linearity. His sculptural soundtracks range in tone from meditative to jarring, creating a dynamic accompaniment to the visual components of each performance. As long, lingering shots of sweeping landscapes and panoramic vistas merge into one another, Bible’s sound design helps us see these familiar terrestrial forms in a renewed and alien light.
Bible’s works have been presented at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, Cleveland Museum of Art, Akron Art Museum, Mattress Factory, Transformer Station and Cleveland MOCA, as well as numerous other events, galleries and festivals over the course of his 20-year creative activity.
