Auraldiversities: Entanglement, Session 3: James Goodwin and Nisha Ramayya

Session Three: 

Poetry and Poetics Workshop with James Goodwin and Nisha Ramayya

Date: Friday 03 February 2023 Time: 12pm – 1pm

In this poetry and poetics workshop, James and Nisha will offer a sequence of listening and writing prompts to guide participants on a rickety, rackety journey between blackness and crystallisation, world ears and oceanic listening. After listening, writing, and potentially/fancifully vibrating together, we’ll hold an informal Q&A/open discussion to reflect on the audio-visual materials, experiences of writing collectively, and broader literary, social, and philosophical concerns.

Pre-sessional materials will be made available to lissten to after sign up.

AuralDiversities: An interdisciplinary programme addressing the ‘auraldiverse turn’ in Arts and Humanities research and theory, questioning how and what we hear, what we listen to and why, as situated within our contemporary milieu and its associated crises.

These multimodal sessions trouble accepted norms in audio technology, sound culture and Western epistemologies and question the extent of human perception, our relation in and through the vibratory world, and whether hearing and listening is ever an individual act.
