Across three days at the start of October 2020, we teamed up with [Unsound](https://www.unsound.pl/) to investigate the implications of the coming world of listening machines in both its dystopian and utopian dimensions. Comprising a montage of presentations, performance, sound, video, music and experiments in listening featuring contributors from around the world, the online gatherings were divided into three sections, open to all. This was session 1.
