MA Music students received a commission to create works for an installation at the fringe of the Green Zone of the COP26 Climate Change Conference, which took place in Glasgow in 2021.
Can You Feel Your Fate? is an emotionally charged climate awareness song created to shine a spotlight on the now critical status of climate change. The principal aim was to create a powerful audio message to highlight and raise awareness of the ongoing climate change battles humanity faces.

It's Not Over Yet is an audio visual installation comprised of four short films that play asynchronously on screens encircling the audience. The audio – a mix of narration, Gaelic singing, composition and field recordings/foley – is played in surround to fully immerse viewers.
The Gaelic song is Cha Mi Na Mor-Bheanna, a song focusing on one's surroundings and remarking on the richness of the land.
