This doctoral project investigates, through spatial sound recording, composition, writing, and documentary - intersections between housing as a lived socio-economic experience and voice as it is embodied, shared, heard and articulated within the home. In 'an era of chronic insecurity and growing inequalities' (Standing, 2011) the voice is a site of testimony and refuge - it bears the trace of our environment's impact on us, and carries the weight of our agency in response to it. Building on Brandon Le Belle's 'poor acoustics', Jacqueline Waldock's 'sensory ethnography' and the sonic practice of among others Cara Tolmie and Evan Ifekoya - this PhD combines situated ambisonic voice recording and vocal choirs in locations such as Guardian Properties, with surround-sound polyvocal installation, writing, and traditional documentary techniques - including oral testimony - to ask how individual voice connects with collectives through precarious architecture, and what forms of socio-political impact this creates for the individual inhabitant and communities.While current theoretical approaches to both voice hearing/embodiment and precarity and its effects proliferate within the humanities, and significant acoustic research within fields such as acoustic ecologies has enabled an understanding of how individuals are constituted as bounded selves, connecting with communities through architecture, there remains a distinct lack of practice-based artistic research that brings these subjects together to find applied and important insights to this urgent problem. Drawing acoustic research and oral testimony into conversation with affect, neuroscience/s, neuro/auraldiversity studies, music, and sonic art will provide the theoretical foundations for my situated spatial sound, writing and documentary practice; both to redress this lacuna and produce new knowledge pathways that traverse diverse fields/disciplines.

这个博士项目调查，通过空间录音，作曲，写作和纪录片-住房作为一个生活的社会经济经验和声音之间的交叉点，因为它是体现，共享，听到和阐述在家里。在“长期不安全和日益不平等的时代”（Standing，2011）声音是一个见证和庇护的场所--它承载着我们环境对我们影响的痕迹，并承载着我们机构对它的回应。基于布兰登·勒贝儿的“糟糕的声学”，杰奎琳·沃尔多克的“感官民族志”以及卡拉·托尔米和埃文·伊费科亚等人的声音实践-这个博士结合了位于高保真立体声录音和声乐合唱团的位置，如监护人属性，与环绕声多声部装置，写作，和传统的纪录片技术-包括口头证词-问个人的声音如何通过不稳定的建筑与集体联系，以及什么样的社会-这对居民个人和社区造成的政治影响。虽然目前的理论方法，声音听觉/具体化和不确定性及其影响在人文学科中扩散，在诸如声学生态学等领域的重要声学研究已经使人们能够理解个人如何构成有界的自我，通过建筑与社区联系，仍然明显缺乏基于实践的艺术研究，将这些主题结合在一起，为这一紧迫问题找到应用和重要的见解。将声学研究和口头证词绘制到与影响的对话中，神经科学/s，神经/auraldiversity研究，音乐和声音艺术将为我的空间声音，写作和纪录片实践提供理论基础;两者都是为了弥补这一空白，并产生穿越不同领域/学科的新知识途径。
