IKLECTIK present,
The Listening Academy: Open Day
Saturday 3 September 2022 | 1pm – 5pm
FREE EVENT
We invite you to join us for this Open Day as part of The Listening Academy. The Listening Academy is a creative, research academy addressing questions and practices of listening. For its summer edition taking place between August 29 – September 4, the academy brings together a group of 35 participants to engage in current debates, to share knowledges and practices, and to experiment with new modalities of research and collaboration. The Open
Day is designed as an opportunity to exchange across a broader public, inviting encounter and meeting points for those interested to find out more, and to meet others involved in sound and listening studies and work. Throughout the afternoon there will be a thread of presentations by invited guests who work with collective initiatives and forms of social engagement. In addition, informal sharing will be encouraged and facilitated – we welcome your presence and input. Please feel free to bring along any materials you might like to share, from publications, project documentation, proposals to works in progress.

THE LISTENING ACADEMY is an independent research academy focusing on listening as a philosophical, artistic, social and somatic issue. This entails a relation to sonic, performative and ecological practices, sound studies research, and experimental pedagogy. The Academy offers a generative and nurturing framework for researchers and practitioners to engage in collaborative exchange and the sharing of knowledge, as well as workshopping new directions in sound studies and related practices.
THE LISTENING ACADEMY is part of THE LISTENING BIENNIAL, an international network and biennial exhibition
platform.
THE LISTENING ACADEMY is currently running at IKLECTIK, through 4th September.
