These artworks address communication through voice and language and the interplay between hearing and listening (the vocal, the spoken) and seeing and reading (the visual, the written). Using collaboration and performance with field recording, digital imaging and the spoken/written word I am currently exploring an expanded approach to language within species and across species through a framework of everyday experience and the maladaptive, mixed and complex conditions that occur in our cities today.

Wild Energes: Live Materials 27-29 April 2022, presented by CRISAP
A celebration of the career of sound artist Annea Lockwood
Hearing Study #6 at the Online Collection
Of the Hearing Studies she wrote with Ruth Anderson, Annea says ‘Twenty-six studies designed to increase awareness of the physical and psychological processes involved in hearing and in listening, to music, to the environment and to others.’
I invited 12 artists, writers and performers to respond to Hearing Study #6 which focuses on listening for repetition and patterns in repetition, in both language (speech) and music.

The Sonic Rewilding of Cities: Listening After Lockdown 2021
by Gascia Ouzounian
The coronavirus lockdowns of 2020 triggered an unprecedented quieting of cities around the world, resulting in a rewilding of cities, and inspiring numerous artistic responses to changing sonic conditions. This talk explores the broadened spectrum of nonhuman sounds in cities which came into vivid relief during lockdown, and it considers crowdsourced sound projects and sound art works—in particular the work of Melbourne-based artist Catherine Clover—that responded to these changing conditions by proposing post-anthropocentric models of sound and listening in cities. |

scores | over borders #2 curated by Jez riley French and Pheobe riley Law, 2021
Following on from the first collection, for over borders #2 artists / composers were asked to send scores that, somehow, can use the act of walking as a way to question the objectification of environments and the role of 'stepping back' from a human centric view of place. Our thanks to all those who responded with their work. |
