Voices of Nature

LUNA CURRENTS

THEME NIGHTS: VOICES OF NATURE

Dinsdag 29 maart 20.00 uur Stationskwartier

Human voices connect us with the world, including what we call nature. Different words shape, communicate, and reflect our thoughts and habits. This evening, we zoom in on these variations and ask: how do different cultures understand and name the spaces and temporalities they inhabit? How do we identify weather and geological phenomena, or other living beings? And how are we part of a living network, through communication and through nourishment of minds and bodies? And what happens when these words are lost? Consider that all kinds of bodies are constantly interacting and generating diverse soundscapes within and around us, these voices allow us to turn our attention to the air and liquids that transmit sound and remind us that voices have materiality, they are carried by waves.

This evening, the public is invited to listen to the voices that shape our ecological relationships. How do we speak with and about nature and the world, and how do we listen? We speak not only in philosophical terms, but pragmatic as well, what is the land that feeds us telling us?
