Listening Notes

Listening Notes is an evolving online extension of Sirenian Drift: Archival Material from a Future River, published in SIRENS – Follow the Water, Follow the Sound, edited by Fabienne Liptay and Giuseppe Di Salvatore and published by Diaphanes. This page gathers the sonic and performative life of the project: the sound composition, the graphic score, future performances, moving-image works, and related materials as they continue to unfold beyond the printed chapter.

Listen to the River

A sound composition built from river-surface recordings, hydrophone layers, voices, and resonant materials. The recordings remain open, like the river itself: shifting, incomplete, carrying traces rather than proof.

The first trace emerged through archival fragments, field listening, and speculative notation. What appears here is not a document of certainty, but a way of following a signal through water, sediment, contamination, memory, and vibration.
