“..the ephemeral mobility and generative nature of sound can open the narrow confines of politics to different political possibilities. The unseen is uncertain, unreliable and incomplete, and thus it invites a quasi-medieval view of the relationship between reality and reason, where reality is not a visible status but an invisible zone within which perception passes through imagination and emotions and is touched by the possibility of phantasms, which deliver it not into trivial fiction, but into the power of creative desire and hope”

“Listening has an exploratory capacity that does not seek to know about the world but approaches learning as a practice, as a physical and continuous effort to understand momentarily and always again how to live in the between-of-things. Its aim is not to know definitively, but to engage through doubt in a temporary and sensorial knowing.”

“[Re: playground of the possible:] Conventional teaching and instruction hold always already within themselves the purpose of their object or tool and thus also the limits of its use, value and context. Smith's treatment of tools and things goes beyond those narrow definitions inscribed in use-value, professionalism and a certain identity. It goes beyond those dimensions of an object that ground it within a rational and purposeful world view, and that anchor it in the discourse of the domestic or the professional respectively.”
