Each screen in this 16-screen installation represents approximately 24-hours/ one day of audiovisual lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) behavioral and spawning data collected in the rapids of the lower Niagara River. This 384-hour study was conducted in spring 2018.
This project is a part of Lake Sturgeons' Guide for Surviving the Anthropocene (LSGFSA).
LSGFSA is generously supported by the Global Warming Art Project grant, Ben Perrone and the Environmental Maze project donors, and administered by the Art Services Initiative of Western New York. It would not be possible without the support of the Lower Great Lakes Fish & Wildlife Conservation Office, US Fish & Wildlife Services (USFWS).
Thank you to Neil Terry, my collaborator in this project, and to Dimitry Gorsky for the support. And to my PAs, Natalie DiIenno and Woodrow Rickard.
