6 - 7PM
Tompkins Square Library
331 East 10th Street, New York, NY
Everywhere We Are is the Farthest Place is an electroacoustic ode—rather than an elegy —that includes immersive field recordings of glacial phenomena to reveal intimate and immense sonic qualities of the transforming Arctic Circle. It begins in the outer space that resembles its earthly NASA Terrestrial Analog Site of the Svalbard desert, and lands us back down to praise our natural surroundings— right now— in the face of rapid change.

Ten Good Years
September 23-28, 2025
Beyond Listening 2025: Walking-With Changes
Central-European Network for Sonic Ecologies Symposium, Ljubljana
Ten Good Years is an imaginative soundwalk drawing on dendrology, bioacoustics and listening to the inner life of trees. Their narrative gives the illusion of time and space slipping, extending or contracting through its soundscape composition. This collaborative project shared by Mary Edwards and Kristine Diekman is originally produced for the 2025 CENSE Beyond Listening Walking-with changes (Cross European Network for Sonic Ecologies) in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The work will be on exhibition September 23-28, 2025.
“By walking-with and listening to the “cultural turn” toward posthumanism we contribute to a shift in understanding humanity’s place within the world, challenging human exceptionalism and dominance. By walking-with and listening we engage in embodied practices that stimulate awareness of limited planetary resources and humanity’s destructive impact, from climate change to biodiversity loss. Such practices urge us to rethink the relationships with non-human life, technology, and ecosystems, advocating for an ethical shift and interdependent approach, to inspire coexistence for more sustainable futures.”

Confluence:Rejoice—the title signifying the ratio of discovery to elation—is a composition inspired by a Soundwalk recently led by sound artist Jeanette Dominguez to the confluence point of the North Branch of the Chicago River and the North Shore Channel.
Tamalpais Higher is a geophonic reimagining of a seismic event based on a blind thrust fault running through Mount Tamalpais north of the San Francisco Bay.
