Throughout July & August of 2019, the Mobile Coaction Lab will be departing on its maiden research voyage, traveling from Wilmington, NC to Santa Barbara, CA and all points in between. On each leg of the research trip, the MCL will be collaborating with a variety of aquatic ecosystems, including oceans, rivers, lakes, watersheds and headwaters. Each day, imagery, sound, data and live water samples will be collected and blended into a site specific evening performance, exploring our relationships with water and the life that it supports.
