  • The workshop is a public moment of the artistic research "Voicing complexities", which questions gender classifications through sound. As a starting point, we will listen to public sound libraries and data sets. We will observe their categorisations and the narratives they reinforce. Later, together with Mitsitron and Ester Venema, in a safer facilitated space, we will record (our own) sounds of exclusion: sounds that fail, refuse, reject, resist the performance of the norm. Using recorders, phones, laptops and various prompts, we will collect different perspectives, positions, stories, experiences to listen to together later. These recordings can initiate a counter-archive of sounds: A reference point for listening and sound making that challenges binary structures.
