A second excerpt from Seltene Erden (2023) by Petra Stump-Linshalm.
Shaped by the fragile balance between extraction and transformation, the piece traces the hidden presence of rare earth elements, materials that quietly sustain our digital lives. Through shifting textures and subtle tensions, it reveals a world where sound, matter, and human impact are deeply intertwined.
A reflection on what lies beneath the surface of our everyday technologies.

How can music contribute to raising awareness about climate change?
Seltene Erden (2023) by Petra Stump-Linshalm explores exactly this question. Inspired by the invisible yet essential materials that power our technological world, the piece brings to life the complex entanglement of nature, industry, and sound.
A work about resources, responsibility and the hidden layers of our present.
