Listen to the Earth activities include listening to one’s soundscape, field recordings, soundwalks, performances, other practices that pertain to acoustic ecology, and more.

  1. During Listen to the Earth, I realized a sound walk through the ecologic reserve of the Pedregal del San Angel (REPSA) which is located in the southwest of Mexico City inside the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). It was born from the eruption of the Xitle volcano 2000 years ago. Now a days, it is one of the last shelters of the Broomstick tree or “Palo Loco”. This ecosystem survives next to one of the biggest and noisiest cities in the world. This field recordings will be part of a larger soundscape project (still working on it) which will include material from the REPSA’s nuclei.

    Here you may listen a little sample:
