Philosophical inquiry, deeply rooted in the visual regime, seems to
struggle when it comes to theoretically coming to grips with listening
and sonic phenomena. It is, after all, no coincidence that the Greek
term ‘theoria’ (θεωρία) means ‘looking at, viewing, beholding’. This
programme explores philosophy’s seeming difficulty in grappling with
listening and its counterpart – sound – as a powerful deconstructive
means to cut through some of the philosophical certainties that underpin
classical and modern Western thought. Can we conceive sounds as
objects, or it would be more appropriate to consider them events? How
far can the phenomenological approach to sound take us, and how much can
we rely on it? And what about new materialisms? Are they more useful,
in hermeneutic terms, when dealing with sound and listening? These are
some of the issues addressed in part one of ON LISTENING. <br><br><b>Timeline</b><br><br><b>1:30 Salomé Voegelin -</b> Listening as a tool to reconsider philosophical certainties and conventions.<br><b>6:40 Peter Szendy - </b>The auscultating subject, power and the fundamental disimetry in listening. <br><b>20:50 Christoph Cox - </b>Materialistic listening and the limits of a phenomenological approach to sound. <br><b>31:24 Casey O'Callahan - </b>Sounds are not objects but events.<br><b>46:10 Salomé Voegelin -</b> Possible world theory and listening. <br><b>58:21 Seth Kim-Cohen -</b> Listening as a form of writing and inscription.
