Research Feature: How to DO(O) Things with Sounds: A Performative (Re)User Manual
Contemporary theorising within the field of sound art practice emphasises the pursuit and function of listening as a central tenet in forming understanding and content. This research goes some way to re-balance this bias by shifting the weight of significance from listening to sounding and its practices. In its vernacular understanding, listening is commonly attributed to the human subject, whereas the potential to sound is shared by both the animate and the inanimate. It is with this in mind that I posit a doing of sound, whether anthropomorphically generated or not, as being crucial in thinking in, through and with sound.

His works challenge the notions of high art and low art and criticize the oppressive uniformity that surrounds genres (even in avant-garde).
