author(s): Rodrigo Toro and Donovan Hernández Castellanos
published in: Journal of Sonic Studies
This essay is based in the urgency of questioning the coloniality of being and power (Quijano, 2014), present in the hegemonic aural regime. It is based on two pieces: Wet Season / Dry Season (2021), a sound installation by the collective of Cuban visual artists Celia-Yunior that was presented at the Jakarta Biennial, Indonesia; and Breathe (2020), an interdisciplinary piece combining dance, literature, sound and video.

This exposition is in progress and its share status is: visible to all.
The installation "Shucuyariy - An Audiovisual Journey in 360°" processes various themes within the framework of Acoustic Ecology in a 360° audiovisual installation. The interview, sound and video recordings on which the installation is based were created during a research trip through Peru and deal with the question of how communities from different regions of Peru perceive their acoustic environment and whether environmental sounds in the communities studied have a special meaning or a significant influence on the structuring of everyday life.
