HADIS FARD: MODES OF LISTENING: A FEMINIST EAR
Modes of Listening: A Feminist Ear, developed around the anthology Bodies of Sound: Becoming a Feminist Ear, edited by Irene Revell and Sarah Shin (Silver Press, 2024).
The workshop takes place outdoors, moving through downtown St. John’s and the Harbour. The harbour is a threshold space, a place where sound crosses what sight cannot: water, distance, language, borders. Working from the book, participants are invited to practice listening as a critical and compassionate act, tuning into what is present but unseen, what travels without permission, what the body receives before the mind names it. The question at the centre is not just who is heard, but what we are willing to hear.
The when & where:
Thursday, July 16th, 2026 @ 3:30pm
Beginning at Harbourside Park
No musical experience required
Wear comfortable clothes and bring a notebook, pens in variety colors, any objects that makes sound and you can carry it (no instruments)
