Australia’s rivers play secret symphonies.
"The environmental issues currently at hand, including global warming, are related, but I believe that at their root lies the decline of our listening ability and the power of listening as humanity. This decline is not merely a matter of our listening ability weakening as we age, but rather it encompasses what we choose to listen to, how we perceive it, and all the various subjects of listening and methods of comprehension. I believe this decline is a collective issue for humanity, particularly in modern Western contexts where we have been taught that this is how to listen, especially in relation to music and everyday listening practices, and how we have become confined to these methods. We must have once believed in more locally rooted ways of listening, but we are losing that I think that is fundamentally connected to the current environmental issues"

J'ai côtoyé Pierre Mariétan sur différents projets franco-Suisses, via les RAME et d'autres actions; ses engagements, ses coups de gueule, ses enseignements, ses expérimentations, son enthousiasme. Un personnage écoutant emblématique qui disparait en laissant un vide dans le champ des paysages sonores. Un de plus hélas
Lire Desartsonnants, textes, récits, études, l'écoute en mots...
Desartsonnants sur le répertoire culturel de la COR (Communauté d'Agglomérations de l'Ouest Rhodanien).
Une fois au singulier, une fois au pluriel (la bonne version)
Si l'action culturelle, le geste artistique, ne sont pas des engagements physiques, des posture situées, des expériences de terrain, des lieux de rencontres, je ne vois pas comment ils et elles pourraient défendre une cause sociétale telle que l'écologie. Dans cette perspective, l'écoute est une action qui peut et doit nous maintenir connectés, interrogés, acteurs et actrices impliqués.
