Listening at the Threshold

 


Floating University, Berlin
Summer 2021

            Part lecture performance, part deep listening session, this workshop takes the soundscape of Floating University as its naturalcultural starting point. The work uses processes of defamiliarization and technological mediation to open up moments of more-than-human listening. Beginning with cochlear (ear-based) listening, the audience will be guided through various auditory thresholds and increasingly nonhuman scales to generate moments of reconfigured, even uncanny, sensing.
