about

Listening Closely - Nicola Di Croce

How can we encourage local development through the development of listening practices?

In 2015 I was invited by the Fondazione Aurelio Petroni for an art residency in San Cipriano Picentino, a small village in the south of Italy, where I developed a project named “Listening Closely”.
I was interested in studying the relationship between the inhabitants of the village and their sonic environment, and unveiling the connection between sonic environment, participatory design and the political level of understanding. The outcome I expected was to stimulate sonic awareness so that sonic identity could enter the political framework of the village.

The 8 tracks are taken from a final performance, which is the result of this sonic research and the direct participation of the inhabitants in the exploration of their acoustic environment.

Recorded in San Cipriano Picentino (SA), Italy; September, 4, 2015
