Natural History (Radio Free Grenada)
Digital Commission
2026 - 2036
Taking the form of an interactive digital map of Grenada, the project reimagines historical geography through sound, site and archival encounter. Built around topographical maps of the island from British colonial archives and the present day, Mostyn’s interactive depositary invites movement across place as a mode of listening.
At each map pin—music, oral testimony and radio recordings unfold as material presence. Sound becomes the connective logic, charting political life, everyday rhythms and the sonic formations that shaped revolutionary consciousness across the Caribbean. What emerges is not a single narrative, but a constellation of speech, song and site.
