sonic materialism : sonic cosmopolitanism : raptures and responsibility

This lecture is a curatorial performance, a presentation of curates and texts to perform research rather than its outcome. As a performative presentation this intervention invites a rhetoric of politics, understood as the governance of interaction and living together, from a being according to to the as a being according to the formless and the between. And it explores the condition of material and subjectivity in the fluid capacity of sound as a collaborative sphere: as a co-inhabited cosmos in which we inter-relate with other things and other subjects as things, creating a shared planet that has no solid surface but a depth to sink in to.
Here we sound in raptures a sonic possible worlds whose boundaries are ephemeral, whose politics is groundless, and whose materiality is the responsibility of a generative encounter.

This presentation Responds to and performs ideas articulated in The Political Possibility of Sound: Fragments of Listening by Salomé Voegelin, Bloomsbury 2019.
