relational ontology

is, in music, an idea of multiple interactions of insects, bells, weather, trucks, amplification, birds, and human vocal and instrumentals to highlight different layers of experiential knowing.

The term 'acoustemic stratigraphies' is offered to evoke the complexity of peeling back and exposing layers of experiential knowing though sound, of listening as habitus, of the poetics and politics of recording, editing, and auditing. Recorded in Hiroshima, Japan, Copenhagen, Denmark, and Accra, Ghana, the three pieces engage the acoustic mediation of what Feld calls 'relational ontologies,' featuring multiple interactions of insects, bells, weather, trucks, amplification, birds, and human vocal and instrumental agencies.'
