Talk show: The sound and colour of ice

What does ice sound like, what colours does it have and what is hidden deep inside? Listen to the sound of the melting ice sheet as we open our science talk show with Jacob Kirkegaard's audio work 'Icefall'. Then we dive into the colours of the ice with director Anders Graver, the temperature and texture of the ice with scientist William Colgan, what's hiding in the ice with Research Professor in Arctic Archaeology Bjarne Grønnow from Nationalmuseet, and how people live on the ice with Inuit storyteller Navarana K'Avigak. It's all about climate change, but it's all based on the ice, in a lively talk show format that incorporates light, sound and colour. The talk show is hosted by Daniel Flendt Dreesen, partner at Green Behavior.
