Abstract:
This paper explores the debate around environmental humanities through the lens of sound and recent examples of sound art. Taking the emergence of ecocriticism as a point of departure, it discusses sound as a conceptual interface in our technologically mediated relationship with the environment. The notion of ‘shared sonic spaces’ is employed to address the shift that is occurring from a ‘poetic of authenticity’ to a ‘poetic of responsibility’ at the intersection of culture, technology and ecology.
