Contribution short abstract:

I have been ethnographically working with field recording and deep listening for a number of years and am particularly interested in interspecies listening and the ways in which (deep) listening can challenge perceptual habits and cultural representations of the non-human.

Contribution long abstract:

In my ethnographic research, I have been working with field recording and deep listening for a number of years. As well as writing about listening and sound explorations, I have (co-)created soundwalks, experimental sound performances and soundscape compositions. I am particularly interested in interspecies listening and the ways in which (deep) listening can challenge perceptual habits (as described by Maurice Merleau-Ponty) and cultural representations of the non-human.

I would be very happy to be part of the workshop, learning from and with facilitators and participants, and actively sharing insights. As I am an experienced field recordist and have access to equipment, I could also contribute some equipment to the workshop if desired.
