Sympoietic Soundscapes: Listening Empathically to A-signifying Semiotics

Considering thought as the crystallization of determination through our relation with the indeterminate, and capitalistic subjectivity as intrinsically linked with the idea of a totalizing consciousness and all its human, all too human correlates —representation of the ego, unity of the person, self-centredness of identity, contempt for non-human life, etc.—, we consider technologically-enhanced listening as an ethical, aesthetic, and analytical practice through the hybrid boundaries of machinic phyla and their a-signifying semiotics, a way of delving into the limits of the human understanding of things, of making kin with the world, of living empathically towards all the inhabitants of our shared planet.
