As with all forms of machine learning, questions of efficacy, access, privacy, bias, fairness and transparency arise with every use case. But machine listening also demands to be treated as an epistemic and political system in its own right, that increasingly enables, shapes and constrains basic human possibilities, that is making our auditory worlds knowable in new ways, to new institutions, according to new logics, and is remaking (sonic) life in the process. |

Machine listening is much more than just a new scientific discipline or vein of technical innovation then. It is also an emergent field of knowledge-power and cultural production, of data extraction and colonialism, of capital accumulation, automation and control. We must make it a field of political contestation and struggle. If there is to be a world of listening machines, we must make it emancipatory.[^exemplary projects] |
