Our devices are listening to us. Previous generations of audio-technology transmitted, recorded or manipulated sound. Today our digital voice assistants, smart speakers and a growing range of related technologies are increasingly able to analyse and respond to it as well. Scientists and engineers increasingly refer to this as “machine listening”, though the first widespread use of the term was in computer music. Machine listening is much more than just a new scientific discipline or vein of technical innovation however. It is also an emergent field of knowledge-power, of data extraction and colonialism, of capital accumulation, automation and control. It demands critical and artistic attention.

MACHINE LISTENING is a new investigation and experiment in collective learning, curated by [James Parker](https://liquidarchitecture.org.au/artists/james-parker), [Joel Stern](https://liquidarchitecture.org.au/artists/joel-stern) and [Sean Dockray](https://liquidarchitecture.org.au/artists/sean-dockray) for [Liquid Architecture](http://liquidarchitecture.org.au/ "Liquid Architecture") and launched at [Unsound 2020: Intermission](https://www.unsound.pl/en/intermission "Unsound")
MACHINE LISTENING is a new investigation and experiment in collective learning, instigated by artist [Sean Dockray](https://liquidarchitecture.org.au/artists/sean-dockray), legal scholar [James Parker](https://liquidarchitecture.org.au/artists/james-parker), and curator [Joel Stern](https://liquidarchitecture.org.au/artists/joel-stern) for [Liquid Architecture](http://liquidarchitecture.org.au/ "Liquid Architecture") and launched at [Unsound 2020: Intermission](https://www.unsound.pl/en/intermission "Unsound")

Across three days at the start of October, we will come together to investigate the implications of the coming world of listening machines in both its dystopian and utopian dimensions. Comprising conversations, performance, provocations and writing from contributors around the world, the online gatherings are divided into three sections, open to all:

2nd October – *![](topic:(against)-the-coming-world-of-listening-machines.md)*

These sessions will be accompanied by ![](topic:massive-device-orchestration.md), a program of experimental artworks, accessible online throughout the festival, along with an open curriculum comprising interviews, audio, video, and essays corresponding to the themes and sessions above.
