SDG 6 | Environmental Consciousness Through Musical Composition | Leah Tolofson

SDG Talks

Turning water into music...

Thanks for joining us for another episode of highlighting change makers and their inspirational work towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In this episode:

• How does Leah transform water data into music?
• How can music inspired by nitrate and phosphorus levels in water wells highlight environmental consciousness?
• How can we be more conscious of our actions and decisions in order to keep the environment clean?

Hear from Leah Tolofson - a Music Composition student from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh.

Leah explores her unique art project that transforms the sound of water into music. Using data from water wells, she creates musical notes representing nitrate and phosphorus levels, arranging them into an atmospheric sound that mimics water flow.

Leah aims to make listeners feel the tension and relaxation associated with clean and dirty water, encouraging environmental consciousness. Her ultimate dream is to compose music for movies or TV shows.
