[Headphones Advised] Listen to the shifting, singing Antarctic sea ice in mesmerising binaural audio to mark the end of another incredible season of Girls Twiddling Knobs. For this Season Finale, Isobel travels to University College London’s Bartlett Sch. of Architecture to meet composer and lecturer Emma-Kate Matthews.

Follow Emma and Isobel on a binaural tour of this incredible hive of architectural and engineering exploration and deep into The Sound Lab. There, Emma shares her journey into sound, music and academia and gives us a binaural sneak peak of her incredible new composition, Conversations at the Edge of the World. In this electroacoustic delight, Emma Kate shares how the sea ice recordings inside “appear to breathe and sing” and we think they provide the perfect finale to Season 04.
