- Why listen with animals? Straining toward an environmental resonancePublication . Luz, Nuno daThis article summons John Berger’s essay Why Look at Animals?, reframing its analysis on human–animal relations under Modernity (with its emphasis on the gaze at a distance) through the entangled reflexivities of listening together with more-than-humans others. If for Berger, animals “in zoos … constitute[d] the living monument to their own disappearance,” field recording helped enshrine their extinction while archiving their voices. Here, I intend to stress the significance of more-than-human vibrations and sounds as transformative zones of contact, especially in our increasingly impoverished urban biomes. And by arguing for an expansion of vibrational attention to such social-environmental contexts, re-assess listening as an eco-sensible methodology that understands both humans, more-than-humans and technology as part of integrated ecologies.
