Tapping into whale medicine, this music of the seas, as a way to address and transmute the trauma and systemic brutality that the legacies of colonization and enslavement have wrought globally on people of African descent and indigenous folks while fomenting institutionalized disregard for and harm to the planet itself. Training my attention on the messages contained within the humpbacks’ songs. I am healing myself in the process, which is integral to the process, and learning more and more from water about how to heal water and heal with water. I’m singing to and with humpback whales in Bahia, Brazil, birthing songs to contribute to the mending of the shattered collective spirit of humanity and support the protection, recovery, and homeostasis of the environment we share with the other beings of Earth-by tuning in to water. That is the central message pulsing through this web that’s spinning forth from me and that I’m being woven into, this confluence of sound and image through and across waves of various types (marine, sound, brain…) that, for now, is called Whale Whispering.
