项目摘要

This project engages publics with issues of climate change through the medium of sound. It starts from the assumption that the complex temporalities and interconnections which characterise climate change issues and the hard-to-articulate hopes, fears and expectations that these provoke might be usefully delineated and voiced through sound. The project focuses on the vulnerable coastal marshes of Blakeney Point, Norfolk, currently in the care of the National Trust (NT), the main project partner. It connects with NT's own concern to encourage residents, stakeholders and visitors to engage constructively with the challenges posed by climatic change in coastal landscapes. The project explores the role of sonic art practice to facilitate and empower residents and other users of Blakeney Point to engage with the challenges raised by climate change and explore possible desired and undesired future scenarios for this location. This study builds and extends the NT's recent initiative Sounds of our Shores (2015-16).Issues of climate change pose extraordinary challenges for the communication of scientific knowledge and for broader public debate concerning environmental uncertainties, possibilities, options and futures. As complex, seemingly intangible phenomena or 'invisible risks', involving a range of timescales and geographically extensive consequences, climate change issues are notoriously difficult to trace, imagine and bring into presence. Arts-based communication of climate change has proved one important means of giving shape and form to such complex issues within certain arenas of public debate. Yet in spite of Hulme's (2008,2009) plea that climate change is very much a cultural problem, much climate change-related arts-based work is made by artists for publics in the hope of provoking responses rather than by publics themselves as an active and ongoing part of facilitating dialogue.This project adopts a social process-based arts methodology to help move arts-based work concerning climate change towards a more clearly articulated model of conversation and mutual learning. It explores the assertion that sound has a distinctive ability to bring together apparently and otherwise incommensurable 'voices', traces, data sonifications and environmental sounds, in a shared space in which each might speak to the other. The potential here is to initiate some form of meaningful communication between social and natural worlds and to enable participants and audiences to better imagine the implications, potentials and possibilities of environmental change.We address three questions in this research:Q1. How can sound help explore and more widely communicate the complex temporal nature of climate change?Q2. To what extent can a sonically based engagement strategy facilitate dialogue, response and conversation between a diverse range of interested parties including various human interests, flora, fauna and environmental processes?Q3. What role can collaborative participatory sonic art play in the creative collective imagining of environmental futures in the context of human-induced climate change?The project team includes geographers, musician-composer-sound artists, community engagement specialists, arts-documentary-makers, local partners: the NT, Blakeney Primary School and Future Radio. A thirty-one month programme of co-devised workshops, sonic data collection and participant-led and composed performance will lead to the production of a Sonic Estuary Plan as an interactive multi-media e-book for Blakeney Point. Other outputs include a sonic exhibition, live performance, a radio ballad and a documentary film to tour/engage with other National Trust coastal sites. Another e-book about these participatory methods of sonic engagement will bring together best practice from elsewhere, critically reflecting on the sonic experiments undertaken in the project.

该项目通过声音媒介让公众参与气候变化问题。它的出发点是这样一种假设，即影响气候变化问题的复杂的时间性和相互联系以及这些问题所引起的难以表达的希望、恐惧和期望，可以通过声音加以有效地描述和表达。该项目的重点是诺福克的布莱克尼角脆弱的沿海沼泽地，目前由主要项目伙伴国民信托基金（NT）负责照顾。它与NT自身的关注相联系，鼓励居民，利益相关者和游客建设性地参与沿海景观气候变化带来的挑战。该项目探讨了声波艺术实践的作用，以促进和授权居民和其他用户的布莱克尼点参与气候变化带来的挑战，并探索可能的理想和不理想的未来情景为这个位置。这项研究建立并扩展了NT最近的倡议我们的海岸之声（2015-16）。气候变化问题对科学知识的传播和有关环境不确定性，可能性，选择和未来的更广泛的公众辩论提出了非凡的挑战。气候变化问题是一种复杂的、看似无形的现象或“无形的风险”，涉及一系列时间尺度和广泛的地理后果，众所周知，很难追踪、想象和提出来。事实证明，以艺术为基础的气候变化传播是在某些公共辩论领域内使这种复杂问题成形的一种重要手段。尽管休姆（2008，2009）呼吁气候变化在很大程度上是一个文化问题，许多与气候变化相关的艺术作品是艺术家为公众创作的，希望引起公众的反应，而不是由公众自己作为促进对话的积极和持续的一部分。这个项目采用了基于社会过程的艺术方法，以帮助艺术-在此基础上，建立一个关于气候变化的工作平台，以实现更明确的对话和相互学习模式。它探讨了这样一种断言，即声音具有独特的能力，可以将显然不可分割的“声音”、痕迹、数据声化和环境声音聚集在一起，在一个共享的空间中，每个人都可以与另一个人交谈。这里的潜力是启动社会和自然世界之间的某种形式的有意义的沟通，使参与者和观众更好地想象的影响，潜力和环境变化的可能性。声音如何帮助探索和更广泛地传播气候变化的复杂时间性质？Q2.以声音为基础的参与战略在多大程度上可以促进包括各种人类利益、植物群、动物群和环境过程在内的各种利益相关方之间的对话、回应和交谈？Q3.在人类引起的气候变化的背景下，协作参与式声音艺术在创造性集体想象环境未来方面可以发挥什么作用？项目团队包括地理学家、音乐家、作曲家、声音艺术家、社区参与专家、艺术纪录片制作人、当地合作伙伴：NT、布莱克尼小学和未来广播电台。一个为期31个月的共同设计的讲习班，声波数据收集和参与者主导的和组成的性能方案将导致生产的声波河口计划作为一个互动的多媒体电子书的布莱克尼点。其他产出包括一个声音展览，现场表演，电台民谣和一部纪录片，以参观/参与其他国家信托沿海网站。另一本关于这些参与式声波参与方法的电子书将汇集其他地方的最佳实践，批判性地反思该项目中进行的声波实验。
