🌳 I don't read much nature writing but was very taken by Underland, happy to learn that it is now a film.

This looks so good. I meant to buy the book but in my haste purchased the audiobook. Never mind, thirteen hours of aural riches await.

I loved Robert McFarlane's book #Underland when it was published in 2019 (https://inquisitivebiologist.com/2019/05/17/book-review-underland-a-deep-time-journey/)

Stoked to see it has been turned into a documentary (https://tribecafilm.com/films/underland-2025). What a dream team of collaborators!

Book review – Underland: A Deep Time Journey

A beautifully written and contemplative travel companion to our planet’s many subterranean realms.

The Inquisitive Biologist

Rereading bits of Robert Macfarlane’s book this morning.

"Maybe, then, what we need to understand the forest's underland,’

I say, ‘is a new language altogether - one that doesn't automatically convert it to our own use values. Our present grammar militates against animacy; our metaphors by habit & reflex subordinate & anthropomorphize the more-than-human world. Perhaps we need an entirely new language system to talk about fungi...We need to speak in spores.'”

'ambient' so yes arrhythmic laptop wash; 'power' so too yes drone-mass, heavy somatica--as much #MBV as #BrianEno in the sonic DNA, if dignified+polite like icecaps melting...

...until final 15min: sawtooth tidal wave of glitch+bash+dense antiquiet hits shore. lonely machine buzz aftermath.

seaside-cave chapter of macfarlane's #UNDERLAND.

an extraordinary enveloping sonic narrative from ASIP.

Portals: Power Ambient — A STRANGELY ISOLATED PLACE

"Ambient as interesting as it is interesting" The term Power Ambient is yes, another attempt at putting a badge or genre to a wide-encompassing range of music stylistically, but it’s one that I have often gravitated towards amongst many others when describing a particular style of m
