Interview: Heloise Tunstall-Behrens & Auclair on becoming The Swarm
Is part of your aim with The Swarm to raise awareness?
HTB: Yeah, and I think it’s a kind of way of helping people connect through sound and through allegory to the natural process of another species.
A: By inviting people into that world or into that journey that we take them on, bees are a bit more familiar. There’s something a little bit less alien or unknown about them. It’s definitely something people have said off the back of it, that they’ve been more interested and paid more attention when stories about bees come up in the news or in films.
- I had a lovely chat with Heloise Tunstall-Behrens & Auclair of Deep Throat Choir about their ambitious new vocal-sound project The Swarm, which tells the story of a swarm of bees. Read that on Beats Per Minute.
