Air Pressure is an Earshot project: it documents the trajectories and patterns of Israeli military aircraft that have violated Lebanese airspace since 2007 — amounting to a total of 22,355 recorded incursions. The index is open-source and can be browsed through the following www.airpressure.info
The project was later adapted into a performance, with Lawrence Abu Hamdan narrating the research process and findings, accompanied by Mohamed Choucair, who provided sound and visual compositions drawn from the collected material. It has toured around the world, including spaces link MoMA Museum of Modern Art in New York, and centre Pompidou in Paris.

Mohamed Choucair is a multidisciplinary artist specialized in film and audio, well practiced as performer and music industry professional. Moe co-founded the Ballroom Blitz in Beirut, served as communication officer and public programmer at the Sursock Museum. He performs under diverse monikers, most notably his latest project: Bakisa.

He is also a core team member of Ma3azef and Radio Alhara, curator of UK platform Keakie, producer of the artPost21 Podcast with Dr Omar Kholeif. A special highlight of his performances features a protest piece dubbed “You are not very famous in Palestine” which premiered in the Venice Biennale of Architecture 2021. He now tours the UAI, a musical instrument made from Israeli drones, as well as researches and records sonic Israeli activities – his most recent study is featured in 2025’s Venice Biennale.
