World Listening Day 2021 24-Hour Stream

Welcome to World Listening Day - a 24 hour broadcast produced by The World Listening Project in association with WGXC Wave Farm, NAISA Radio, and World Forum for Acoustic Ecology.

The schedule below includes names of contributing artists and links to their websites. Many thanks to all who have sent us their sounds and videos.

World Listening Day – a 24 hour broadcast is a community reflection and celebration of sound, creativity and listening on July 18, a date chosen to honor one of the early leaders in acoustic ecology, music and sound studies, Canadian composer R. Murray Schafer. Among the self-organized and initiated personal celebrations, and local live and public events taking place around the world, the World Listening Project has curated a 24-hour online audio and video broadcast from contributions received in response to its open call, reflecting this year’s theme, “The Unquiet Earth.” 

ABOUT WORLD LISTENING DAY 2021: Each year a theme is created by someone with a deep connection to the act of listening. Lisbon-based filmmaker, curator and researcher, Raquel Castro, created the theme for 2021. “The Unquiet Earth” is an invitation to reflect on and engage with the constant murmur of the Earth, sounds beyond the threshold of human hearing, to remind ourselves that we share this mysterious and awesome planet. Castro shares that, “Small, hidden, subterranean, aerial, underwater, infra and ultrasonic sounds, inaudible to the naked ear, can bring a new, potentially hopeful, perspective on the future of the planet and humanity. Listening as activism encourages us to question our attitudes as listeners as we aim to construct a more inclusive and empathetic new world. Join the unquiet revolution!”
