Lecture and discussion with Jonas Spieker
Images of devastating forest fires, deadly heatwaves and destructive floods are now omnipresent - but what does climate change actually sound like? And can the supposedly "silent" extinction of species that is taking place in the background of these disasters be heard? Jonas Spieker uses audio examples from Environmental Sound Art to explore the acoustic dimensions of ecological crises in his lecture. Together, the participants will learn to listen - and in this way will begin to reflect on the significance of (sound) artistic practices for socio-ecological transformation processes.
