It is not only habitats and species that are increasingly disappearing, but also the associated sounds and noises, which have always made the networks of living things sensually tangible. The radio.earth project deals with the acoustic dimension of changing habitats and natural conditions and works on an ability to perceive that combines factual knowledge and sensory cognition.

In order to increase and interweave knowledge and sensitivity to changing natural conditions, the project encourages critical listening to live soundscapes of natural places curated by participants in the radio.earth project. In this context, nature refers to places with varying degrees of land use and degradation, from wild nature to agricultural, urban and industrial zones, where aspects of this anthropocene nature become audible.

In the radio talk, Udo Noll talks about the art of listening in times of ecological crisis and experimental radio as a mediating practice.
