Hi, everyone, thanks for great week. Hope you'll continue to chime in through
the rest of the month, as well.
Regarding, Salome's question, I'm wondering whether she would exclude
participatory vibrancy as a critical condition of the

Dear Tim
I am sure participatory vibrancy has a criticality, or at least has the
potential for criticality in both the instances you mention, it depends
however on your interpretation of the auditory and of criticality as to whether

Chris, in relation to the dumb world: absolutely of course I would never
suggest that the world is a dumb vessel we sit within. However, the answer to
humanism and idealism that sets itself above this world and its things, is not

Hi all,
To my mind, a most basic condition of art is for something to be revealed,
though what that/those thing/s are will never be singular. I don't believe
there is something essential about what sound art/audio art/ music can

One last comment on this general epistemological and metaphysical issue
which, while not about sound per se, bears on methodologies of sonic
inquiry:
The (non-human) world is not an other from which we are somehow cut
off. Human

the processes of selection, incorporation, assimilation, etc. through which

Dear Semitransgenic
In order to penetrate the epistemological bubble of Christoph's post, I suppose
one would have to have read folks like Nietzsche and Deleuze and Foucault and
Derrida and De Landa and Christoph himself. This would

Over the past 8 or 9 years, Christoph and I have been back and forth from the

still to be overturned. To wit:

I agree with much of what Seth says.
As for much of what Salome says, a proper response would require a much
bigger contribution than I'm able to make right now and a different
forum than this one. Suffice it to say: (1) I accept a

Dear Jim
thanks for inviting me to pose a question to this list.
my question is rather short:
What is the relationship between listening and sound art?
and in many ways so self evident that it truly baffles me, and any suggestions,
--empyre- soft-skinned space--
Hello All
Nice to be with you and thanks, Jim, for the invitation to participate.
Art that engages sound is not a special case. The same obligations obtain, and
the same privileges too. The fetishization of audio technology hearkens

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to participate in the discussion, Jim.
I think Seth's post is bang on, and it actually unearths this strange tendency
to treat sound and listening as extra-discursive somethings that are often
--empyre- soft-skinned space--
I think a false dichotomy is being drawn here between sound waves and
mute materiality [sic], on the one hand, and ideologies, economies,
societies, subjects, history, power, on the other. This dichotomy maps
on to other false

At a talk tonight at the Chelsea College of Art in London I was reminded that
John Berger wrote his seminal Ways of Seeing in 1973. That is a good 40 years
ago, and it is 40 year of acknowledging and working with the fact that seeing

or manifests a betrayal

Chris: I am sorry if I was not as clear as I would like to be. I do not think
sound is necessarily political, and a vista is not per se political either, but
listening and looking are. Sound is sound and a chair is a chair, but how I

Sorry, just to add. I do not think that a post-idealist, post-humanist
materialism means to deny human agency, perception and reflection in a passive
vibration, but to understand the equivalent embededness, (being centered in the

--empyre- soft-skinned space--Hi Seth,
not sure I can agree with this : ) The fatigue with the language of
conceptual art expressed by Semitransgenic strikes me as a response to the
very difficult and neverending work of resisting the dominant vocabularies
of our times
--empyre- soft-skinned space--Thanks for these questions. I am fascinated by how people listen to sound
art, and find that others' listening experiences expand my understanding of
sound art works. Each time I have engaged listeners in conversation about
sound art,
