*New podcast: Political geographer and sound artist Anja Kanngieser
<https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-314-anja-kanngieser> *works in the
coordinates between space and sound. This merging of disciplines that seems
completely normal to her tends to be more perplexing to the
compartmentalised world of science and academia than to the undisciplined
field of artistic practice. In this podcast, we become the listeners as
Anja Kanngieser reflects on expanded listening, on the inaudible, and on
our anthropocentrism. They talk about their long-standing interest in sound
governance and dissect the many tensions that built up in the project
“Climates of Listening”, which was originally based on the intention of
amplifying campaigns for self-determination and self-representation in the
Pacific.

Political geographer and sound artist Anja Kanngieser works in the
coordinates between space and sound. This merging of disciplines that seems
completely normal to them tends to be more perplexing to the
compartmentalised world of science and academia than to the undisciplined
field of artistic practice.

Anja Kanngieser’s work involves a close, critical, uncomfortable, political
listening in which they both explore sound governance and seek to
creatively amplify indigenous struggles for social justice in times of
climate change. In doing so, they do not for a moment lose sight of the
complexities and contradictions inherent in carrying out field work in the
context of white academia, no matter how much anti-colonial theory and how
many good intentions go into a project. Listening, affects, orality
permission, recompense, exchange, recording, silences, pauses, natural
disasters, and an awareness of when it’s time to leave, are thus key tools
in their field research. These prerequisites challenge the protocols and
formalities of academic work and resist encapsulation in its language. Anja
Kanngieser draws on many strategies to resolve these tensions: from a
personal and compulsive archive of field recordings and orality, to
documentary essays, sound walks, sound maps, sonification, radio pieces,
lectures, workshops, podcasting manuals, and academic literature, always
attuned to any possible cracks in the academic corset.
