Prototype Website For The Last River Echoes
Click here to explore the prototype website
This prototype website demonstrates the intended UI/UX direction and functional flow for the Mekong River Sound Archive. The current design, visuals, sounds, text, and mapping elements are temporary mock-ups created to illustrate how users may experience and interact with the final platform.
The website is envisioned as an immersive digital environment combining environmental recordings, underwater sounds, oral histories, ceremonial audio, documentary visuals, geolocated sound mapping, and educational storytelling connected to the Mekong River across Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand.
The prototype explores how listening, mapping, sound navigation, and visual storytelling can function together as tools for environmental awareness, cultural preservation, and public engagement. It is designed to create an emotional and sensory experience that allows audiences to engage with freshwater ecosystems beyond traditional scientific communication formats.
The current version should be understood as an early rough mock-up. Both the design and content will continue to evolve significantly throughout the project in collaboration with local communities, conservation organizations, artists, educators, and technical collaborators. Features including downloadable sound archives, conservation donation integration, educational materials, geolocated recordings, and immersive storytelling components will be further developed during production.
VIST Sound Lab : Amazon
The VIST Sound Lab is an interdisciplinary space for collective experimentation, bringing together artists from across the Global South to explore different territories, memories, and ways of listening.

Immersive Live A/V Performance at Sound Temple, NYC
This immersive live A/V performance at Sound Temple in New York City transformed the space into a fully sensory 360-degree environment of sound, vibration, and moving image. Surround projection mapping and a spatial sound system enveloped participants in an evolving audiovisual landscape exploring frequency, meditation, inner awareness, and the relationship between the human body and vibration.
Audience members were invited to lie on a custom vibration bed embedded with seven speakers, each emitting frequencies directed toward different parts of the body and corresponding chakra energy centers. Combining low-frequency resonance, environmental sound, voice, electronic textures, and immersive visuals, the experience encouraged deep listening, physical sensation, meditation, and altered states of perception.
Blurring the boundaries between performance, sound healing, installation art, and collective ritual, the work explored how sound and vibration can function not only as artistic mediums, but also as tools for emotional release, reflection, and reconnection with both the self and surrounding environment.
GREENPEACE βs Rainbow Warrior boat
In 2024, Greenpeaceβs Rainbow Warrior arrived in Thailand, giving me the opportunity to join and assist with marine biodiversity research on the seafloor of Songkhla, where large corporations were pushing for new industrial infrastructure projects. Through the expedition, we documented a rich diversity of marine species and helped support a successful public petition calling for the protection of the area.
Coral Gardeners Thailand
In 2024, I had the opportunity to represent Coral Gardeners as their Thailand ambassador. After fieldwork expedition focused on coral restoration and marine conservation and discussions with the team, I was invited to join the board of their Thailand foundation, helping support their mission of reef restoration, community engagement, and ocean awareness in the region. Since then, Iβve remained actively connected with the organization and returned to visit the restoration site again during Sylvia Earleβs visit last year, which was a deeply inspiring moment to witness global ocean conservation efforts intersecting with local action in Thailand.
Swim Fundraising Campaign
I had the opportunity to join One Man and the Sea, a marine conservation campaign led by Thai singer and actor Pakin Kumwilaisak. Through a series of long-distance open-water swims and public awareness activities, the campaign encourages people to care for Thailandβs rivers and oceans, reduce pollution, support marine conservation, and raise awareness around the importance of protecting aquatic ecosystems for future generations. The project beautifully combines adventure, environmental advocacy, and public participation to inspire a deeper connection between people and nature.
Vivienne Westwood upcycled Bangkok Exhibition
In 2018, I had the opportunity to direct and edit an online and offline exhibition campaign for the Vivienne Westwood Upcycled Bangkok Collection. The project focused on raising awareness around plastic pollution and environmental sustainability through fashion, film, and storytelling. I also invited Thai actors, artists, and creators to participate in the campaign, helping amplify the message and encourage wider public engagement around environmental issues.
Net Free Sea
In early 2019, I had the opportunity to participate in several ghost net and abandoned fishing gear removal initiatives, including collaborations with Net Free Seas. The recovered nets and marine debris were later upcycled into household products in partnership with Qualy, transforming harmful ocean waste into functional everyday objects. These experiences deepened my understanding of marine pollution and the importance of circular design and community-driven conservation efforts.
NOTEPβs sustainability guide to Koh Tao, Thailand
I collaborated with Travel + Leisure on a sustainability guide for Ko Tao, showcasing the islandβs eco-conscious community, wellness culture, and responsible approach to tourism beyond its reputation as one of Thailandβs top diving destinations. Alongside the project, I also worked with local fishermen to help build natural fish aggregation devices (FADs), supporting marine biodiversity and more sustainable fishing practices.

The music video for βFormulaic Ripplesβ from the Metamorphogenesis album was filmed in the GalΓ‘pagos Islands, highlighting the archipelagoβs unique endemic species and fragile ecosystems. Through immersive visuals and sound, the project celebrates the biodiversity of one of the worldβs most ecologically significant environments while encouraging a deeper connection with the natural world.
PAKARANG EP
PAKARANG (ΰΈΰΈ°ΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈ£ΰΈ±ΰΈ), meaning βcoralβ in Thai, is an EP by Notep that explores the quiet parallels between coral reefs, the ocean, and the human body. Blending ambient textures, ethereal pop, electronic production, natural soundscapes, and traditional instrumentation, the project reflects themes of sensitivity, healing, surrender, and interconnectedness with nature. Inspired by the resilience and fragility of coral ecosystems, PAKARANG invites listeners into a sonic world that moves like water and encourages deeper listening, presence, and reconnection with both self and planet. It will be fully released on September 4th 2026.
Released on Earth Day 2026, βRadioβ was the first signal from PAKARANG. Blending ethereal pop with ambient electronics and natural textures, the track explores the idea of tuning back into a frequency that has always existed within us. βRadio is about finding the frequency that was always there. Not discovering something new, but remembering something you already carry,β says NOTEP. The accompanying visual, created with digital artist Cyrus James Khan, was filmed on the open ocean off Koh Tao Island, Thailand, featuring sculptural fashion pieces made from reclaimed ocean waste and ghost nets. Together, the song and visuals introduce the EPβs central idea: that the ocean and the body are not separate systems, but reflections of one another.
The Ancestral Forest at Wonderfruit Festival
An immersive sound meditation and installation created for Wonderfruit Festival, combining field recordings gathered in nature with live vocals, meditative listening, and environmental storytelling. The project brought together monks, sound practitioners, dancers, and audiences in a shared act of deep listening within the festivalβs Ancestral Forest. The collected sounds were transformed into an evolving soundscape installation and later performed live on Wonderfruitβs main stage as a multisensory experience reflecting humanityβs connection to nature, memory, and the living world.
Symbiosis
Symbiosis is a performance and installation exploring the delicate relationship between humans and nature in the era of climate change. Through breath-controlled mechanics, my breathing directly influences the movement of a paintbrush interacting with water and floating plants, symbolizing the impact of human actions on natural ecosystems. The work reflects on the contrast between parasitic consumption and mutual coexistence, imagining a future where humanity lives more harmoniously and sustainably with the Earth.
High On Your Own Supply
NOTEP is the founder of High On Your Own Supply, a community-driven initiative promoting sustainability, environmental awareness, and self-sufficiency in Koh Tao, Thailand, with a strong focus on empowering local youth. Through events, workshops, camps, volunteer programs, and sustainability guide videos created alongside children and local communities, the initiative encourages deeper connections between people, nature, and more conscious ways of living.

NOTEPβs Eco and Ethical Merchandise
I collaborated with hill tribes and local communities in Chiang Mai to create a merchandise line ranging from body oils and clothing to furniture. Each product was made using reclaimed, recycled, upcycled, or natural materials while supporting local craftsmanship, sustainability, and community-based production.
The Burana necklace was created in collaboration with Plastao, a sustainability initiative from Koh Tao and Precious Plastic, Bangkok, Thailand focused on fighting plastic pollution. Each piece is made from recycled plastic bottles and bottle caps collected from the local environment. I also developed a community project where local children were taught and hired to help produce the necklaces, creating both environmental awareness and economic opportunities through upcycled design.
