鈥淭o be communicative depends upon anticipating the other鈥檚 moves. The aim is not to end the communication but to keep it going.鈥 鈥 聽Paul Carter, Ambiguous Traces

This experimental workshop explores the medium of echo, with Echo Choir director Sarah Latto and artist/anthropologist Hermione Spriggs. Beginning with simple vocal exercises and scores for deep listening, and inspired by the echo-locative strategies of different British bat species, we will work together to open our senses, experiencing the Grant Museum of Zoology from a new, more-than-human vantage.

We will probe the Grant Museum鈥檚 architectural spaces and explore how to relate to each other in a mode that stretches and expands what we can feel, hear and know as human beings.

Suitable for all voices of all ages.

This event is part of Performing Planet Activism, a series of interactions, performances and dialogues at 果冻影院 that bring together artists, activists, researchers and communities engaged in climate activism.
