Critical essays, interviews and visual interventions in this volume navigate the messy world of climate crisis and oppressive capitalism. Through various contributions made in the context of the Sonic Acts Academy 2020 programme, the magazine brings together different facets of diverse disciplines that imagine what (and for whom) a future worth living is. It pairs photographs, drawings, manuals, and film stills that highlight the strategies of visibility and mobilisation that art enables. The featured critical essays and rigorous discourse shift our attention towards listening to ecocide, humanity’s extractive relationship to the cosmos, and the damage sensed by more-than-human ensembles.
