A new cargo port expansion ushers in a new wave of noise pollution across commemoration sites in Shark Island, Namibia. This new research highlights, and expands on Chord Intervals at the brink of erasure, highlighting a continuum of material, and immaterial disposessions in Namibia today. The experience will expand and inflect on these same Chord Intervals and their use within other contexts across the Black Atlantic.
