Sound elicitation, or how to build untamed listening
Interview with Gilles Aubry
Marc Haas
Gilles Aubry, an experimental musician based in Berlin, is working toward a PhD blending ethnological research and artistic sound work at the University of Bern. As an interpreter-researcher, his work quite specifically addresses the notion of listening, that he attempts to raise to the level of the political, aesthetic and philosophical challenges of our time. Marc Haas met him in order to talk about audible frontiers, on how to make a city resonate and on a critical way of listening that would go beyond the boundaries of science.
