Laura Oldfield Ford invites a group of artists, writers, theorists, musicians, activists and other practitioners to participate in a discussion and collective listening event.

These include explorations into the politics of sound, sound essays, thinking about the liminal, thresholds, conduits and crossings. Oldfield Ford is interested in affect, how people negotiate the psychic terrain of the city.

Themes that the event touches upon include transformation and transition; the experiential, including how we experience and move through space; forensic architecture; sound as assertion of territory; and as a political strategy. By bringing people from diverse backgrounds together Oldfield Ford aims to offer new perspectives on how we feel and hear the city.
