She received her phD at the University for Music and Dance Cologne, before joining the Arctic University of Norway in August 2017. Her research is driven by the wish to analyze power relations in the narratives that infuse societies both in history, present and for future times. Being a feminist scholar, she has broadened her focus from analyzing the existing stories about one specific historic actor (phD) and re-narrating it, to scrutinizing dominant tropes in popular Western culture. Her aim is to help to unpack the potential of the humanities to contribute to a better understanding of the cultural aspects of the current environmental crisis. With her actual research, I wish to move beyond persistent Western narratives on environment and climate change, to understand how places can be understood also through embodied knowledges, and what impact this could have on the living and dying of humans and other than humans. Her research draws from feminist and critical theories, and examines knowledges, places and relations. Wondering what knowledges become perceptible and for whom and which not and for whom not, she tries to understand sensual, artistic, local and Indigenous knowledges with a geographical focus on the North of Norway\/S\u00e1pmi<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Listening to Weather and Landscape\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n 27 September 2023 l Talk l Universitatea de Vest Timi\u0219oara, Faculty of Fine Arts and Design Facebook event<\/a><\/p>\n Asociatia Galeria Noua in partnership with Asociatia Romana de Arta Contemporana and Universitatea de Vest Timisoara are pleased to invite you to a public lecture by meteorologist Katrin Losleben. The lecture will provide an insight into their respective research, offering an extension to the theme of the exhibition project “Blue Sun. Conversations about art, science and ecology”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n About Katrin Losleben\u2019s public lecture<\/strong><\/p>\n How we deal with environmental crises is not about how we understand how to be human on this planet. It\u2019s about what we know about other earthlings and our relationships with them. Reliance on science and scientific \u2018solutions\u2019, closely linked to capitalist, colonialist and imperialist extractivism, has created endless catastrophes in the lives of others (colonised, racist, non-Western, \u2018nature\u2019) and has culminated in recent centuries in ecological collapse, tangible in all corners of the planet. Through the Arctic Auditories \u2013 Hydrospheres in the High North project, funded by the Norwegian Research Council 2021-25, researchers from five fields are brought together to materialize what listening to human and non-human voices can mean, to imagine alternative conceptualizations and performances of knowledge and consequently sustainability.<\/p>\n A cultural anthropologist of music, a human geographer, a landscape and sound researcher, a feminist musicologist and a literary scholar have taken a lean theory approach (Kosofsky Sedgwick) to listening to the waters of northern Norway. From this example, citing those of Astrida Neimanis, Susan Bickford, AM Kanngieser and Zoe Todd, we can extend the notion of listening to political interactions with non-human beings.<\/p>\n The project is firmly grounded in feminist and queer theory, taking into account the troubled history of listening from a gendered perspective, but moving on to new feminist materialist understandings of trans-corporeality and issues of sound and fluidity.<\/p>\n However, key perspectives come from local communities in and around Troms\u00f8, some of them indigenous. We learn from those whose ancestors have lived in Troms\u00f8 for thousands of years, from those who have come here in recent weeks, and from those who come here temporarily. What they all have in common is also triggered by our project, they become more aware of how they understand the area through its sounds, how they are part of the soundscape, how they hear the place differently over time or in comparison to areas they have lived in previously, and how others might hear the same sounds but read them differently. We wonder: What happens when these floating experiences of a place meet? How does listening to the waters disturb common Western epistemologies? What sound knowledge exists that has not been listened to? And how can we enter on this basis into discussions about how to live and make this place in a meaningful way?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”2874,2872,2870,2868,2873,2859,2865,2862,2867″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The \u201dBlue Sun\u201d\u00a0 project is included in the extended programme of Timisoara 2023 –\u00a0 European Capital of Culture.
