Ocean Currents
The ocean supports a global underwater circulation system of currents, eddies, and up-wellings that affect temperature and nutrient distribution that in turn affect weather patterns, the marine food chain, biodiversity, and ultimately human life. A possible shift in the ocean "conveyor" would hold serious implication for the health of marine species, the worldwide dispersion of pollutants, and the security of the coastal zone wherein most of us live.

OUTLAW OCEAN MUSIC PROJECT:
A CROSSOVER BETWEEN MUSIC & JOURNALISM
Take your pick: listen to ambient tracks, classical, electronic or hiphop. All music in this project is based on THE OUTLAW OCEAN, a New York Times best-selling book by Ian Urbina that chronicles lawlessness at sea around the world. The reporting touches on a diversity of abuses ranging from illegal and overfishing, arms trafficking at sea, human slavery, gun-running, intentional dumping, murder of stowaways, thievery of ships, and other topics. The music is an act of solidarity across geography and language, and an attempt at storytelling from written word to music. It is a captivating collection of inspired songs ranging from classical to hip hop.
