Reference loops. Constructing sound archives of the Anthropocene

Abstracts

This article discusses ways of constructing sound archives by focusing on the relationship between what is to be archived and how. Rather than simply asking which medium to use and whether it is adequate for storing a certain type of information, the author ponders on another question: What if the possibility of storing data in itself is (or becomes) a certain form of primary information encoded in the archives of the Anthropocene? Consequently, the author does not focus only on sound collections – recordings of living creatures and products of civilisation. Instead he elaborates on methodological aspects that emerge in the process of making and archiving the audio representations of the Anthropocene, inspiring further epistemological questions and doubts. Seeking to resolve them, the author employs theoretical tools proposed by Bruno Latour, Gilles Deleuze, and Félix Guattari.
