Presenters: Co-editors Lindsey french and Kate Joranson along with contributor Fereshteh Toosi present in conversation with Open Education & Publishing Program Manager Shuana Niessen.
Abstract: An understanding of listening as deeply relational frames the materials gathered in the publication, which grew out of a Great Lakes Association for Sound Studies (GLASS) conference held in October 2022 with the University of Saskatoon and the University of Regina. Responding to a turn in sound studies that centers the role of listening, Listening as a Shared and Social Practice considers the co-constitutive nature of listening through a collection of essays and activities that prompt us to notice and listen more deeply.
