Abstract

How can thinking with/through sound and listening yield insights into living despite the colonial order? What role does sensory perception play in destabilising long standing power relations? And how to translate a sonic space into (academic) writing? The project is a preliminary documentation of an ongoing process and engagement with dissonance (disturbance of order) and sound (travelling waves).
