+# Diagnostic Listening
+
+Imagine a stethoscope without a doctor. What would it hear? And why is it listening? What does your body say when you're speaking? What does it say when you're [not](https://www.wired.com/insights/2014/06/heartbeat-may-soon-password/ "Your Heartbeat May Soon Be Your Only Password")? This experiment invites participants to occupy, understand and critique a diagnostic imaginary increasingly being cultivated by corporate and other actors in the field of machine listening. Listen to someone speaking. It could be yourself, in a recording, a friend or family member, or as part of a group. Maybe close your eyes. Try to listen past the content of the speech to the body of the speaker. What do you hear? Accent? Nationality? Emotion? Age? Sex? Gender? Ethnicity? Health? Criminality? Risk? Covid-19? What does it mean to claim to be able to hear these things?
