On Listening is a unique collection of forty multi-disciplinary
perspectives drawn from anthropology, bioacoustics, geography,
literature, community activism, sociology, religion, philosophy,
art history, conflict mediation and the sonic arts including music,
ethnomusicology and field recording. These specially commissioned
contributions explore the many ways in which skilled listening can
mediate new relationships with our physical environment and the
people and other species that we share it with. From the
Introduction: Listening has become an increasingly popular subject
of study. It features in conferences, in academic journals, in
doctoral research projects. However, reflexive listening is an
applied practice that exceeds the boundaries of academic
institutions to take its place in a number of everyday settings.
This book aims to connect the scholarly and the experiential and
extend the contemporary discourse on listening.
