Memorypond (Sarah Borbridge) is a sound artist based in Treaty 1 territory/Winnipeg, MB. She is interested in investigating the depths of the sonic world that encompasses her lived experience. Using field recordings of the urban and domestic environments and synthetic sounds that she manipulates and distorts, Memorypond aims to create droney soundscapes that induce a meditative response from the listener.
