Discover the sounds beneath the surface of the waters surrounding the Isle of Man and gain a new appreciation of the Island's rich and varied marine life.
Hear Us is an ongoing project bringing together artists, musicians, researchers, and members of the public to make underwater recordings around the Isle of Man. By listening to sounds beneath the surface, we can gain a new appreciation of the Island's rich and varied marine life — and a deeper awareness of the human-made sound pollution that threatens it. The project was inspired by the 1950s' short stories of Wirral-born writer Malcolm Lowry, titled after the Manx fishermen's hymn 'Hear Us O Lord From Heaven Thy Dwelling Place'.
On display in the Manx Museum, Natural History Corridor from 14/12/2024 — 30/03/2025 (closed Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Years Day).
