January 12, 2021 5:07
AKQA has announced a pro-bono initiative with Sydney Symphony Orchestra for The [Uncertain] Four Seasons Project at Sydfest 2021.
The announcement:
The [Uncertain] Four Seasons is a global project to recompose Vivaldi’s ‘The Four Seasons’ using climate data for every orchestra in the world.
Global innovation and design company AKQA and Hamburg based advertising agency Jung von Matt, in partnership with The Sydney Symphony Orchestra, composer Hugh Crosthwaite and Monash University’s Climate Change Communication Research Hub have used climate data to recompose Vivaldi’s ‘The Four Seasons’. One of the most loved classical pieces of music, Vivaldi’s ‘Four Seasons’ was written three centuries ago and is an endlessly inventive depiction of each season, influenced by the rhythms of the year.
