Takeover Thursday - Anthrophonic Criticism: Reclaiming Quiet
In the framework of the exhibition « état bruit »
Deze inhoud is helaas niet in het Nederlands beschikbaar.
Join us for an eclectic Takeover Thursday for each exhibition at the Konschthal. These events are an opportunity to rediscover the exhibitions through the perspective of our guests. Each evening is unique — conceived by participants working in various fields, it revolves around changing themes related to the exhibitions. Through concerts, readings, encounters, performances, workshops, and much more, the Konschthal reinvents itself.
In response to the exhibition "état bruit", the Konschthal invites Sam Erpelding to create an evening centered around the themes that run through the exhibition.

Anthrophonic Criticism: Reclaiming Quiet invites listeners to expand their perception beyond human listening and to attune themselves to how non-human beings experience and endure human din. Through acousmatic performances and environmental sound art, the evening explores the omnipresent noise that permeates Anthropocene soundscapes – an often-unnoticed by-product of expanding economic systems.
This constant acoustic connotation alters habitats, influences behavior and redefines what we call ‘wilderness`.
By engaging with the soundscapes of protected ecosystems, the programme reflects on how natural quiet is constructed, lost and potentially regained. In this way, the event opens up space for critical listening practices – in which quiet is not absence, but rather represents physical resistance, attentiveness and a renewable, shared resource of ecological wealth that calls for coexistence.
