Impossible? I think NOT!
Music is usually pleasingly harmonious to all who can hear it. Unless one if audially incapable, music can be played, heard and either enjoyed or disliked; all the same, the continuous and regular vibrations can be noticed. That is of course, if the vibrations of sound wavelengths can travel through the atmosphere. The most significant element necessary to create music is of course, air. Sound and noise can be produced without air, but music and harmony must have a more stable atmosphere of "molecules [that] are very light and are in extremely rapid, but disorganized motion," (http://arts.ucsc.edu/EMS/Music/tech_background/TE-01/teces_01.html). Consequently, a marching band would not be capable or performing in the abyss of the Atlantic Ocean! Through use of digital media, and/or appropriated images, I propose to create 4 impossibilities based on this theme of underwater musical performance.
