Talk, Jenny
How may field recording rituals may be practiced to re-tune ourselves back to listening; back to a listening mode of empathy and a re-store our connection with our approximate surroundings and place; fellow humans, more than human beings – and nature.
Wednesday, June 5
10:00- approx.17:00 Fragmenturgy Transmissions (practical session including breaks and individual work)
In this practical session, we will closely re-explore and be-with a limited habitat existing within our approximate surroundings, via various modes of listening. Each of us will record personal fragments that we will collectively and carefully transmit back in interplay with the site.
Info and preparation
For this session, you will need:
· A smartphone or a computer for transmission of sound (play-out). (Some possibilities for playing out straight from recording device via mini tele too.)

· Something to sit on.
· Mosquito repellent
· Pen and paper.
