          THE ART OF LISTENING: THE CRAFT OF SONIC CINEMA

          12:10 - 13:00 Tuesday 17th Mar 2026 / 50 min

          In the beginning the cinema was silent. How is sound used as a creative and critical force in contemporary moving images - what do we sense first, sound or image?

          Listening is essential to empathy, relation and connection. As documentary filmmakers and artists, how do we integrate soundscapes into our work and invite the audience to listen through multiple senses? As humans, what can we learn about our position in the world from acoustic ecologies? Join us in this exploration of sound and storytelling with New Vision filmmakers Onyeka Igwe, Hira Nabi and Anne Gry Friis Kristensen, moderated by Luke W. Moody.

          Speakers

          Anne Gry Friis Kristensen

          Anne Gry Friis Kristensen is a Danish sound artist, composer and filmmaker, educated from the National Danish Filmschool as a sound designer. As a sound artist her work includes both music releases (Fabienne Erato), sound design for film and documentary, sound installations, performance and art film. Her first work as a director (Entrance to the End) was a collaboration with photographer Maria Von Hausswolff and was screened at CPH:DOX in 2018. Latest she did the sound design for Swedish artist John Skoogs feature film Värn/Redoubt and the sound and music in collaboration with Alexander Holm for Danish art group Diakrons work “7 summers” for the Singapore Biennale 2025. Anne Gry Friis Kristensen is a member of Terrassen, a roving cinema in Copenhagen engaging with the social life of film.

          Hira Nabi

          Hira Nabi is a visual artist and filmmaker. She works with cinema, performance, and writing to think with her collaborators on the disappearance of multi-worlds, afterlives, plural temporalities, labour infrastructures, linking histories of colonial extraction with ongoing violence, and articulating gestures of care to find justice and dignity, alongside survival. Gathering and archiving testimonials in the wake of destruction and extinction make up an important part of her practice. In her work, witnessing is a charged act of radical possibility, holding immense potential for collective responsibility and love.

          Onyeka Igwe

          Onyeka Igwe is a London born and based, moving image artist and researcher. Her work is aimed at the question: how do we live together? Not to provide a rigid answer as such, but to pull apart the nuances of mutuality, co-existence and multiplicity. Onyeka’s practice figures sensorial, spatial and counter-hegemonic ways of knowing as central to that task. For her, the body, archives and narratives both oral and textual act as a mode of enquiry that makes possible the exposition of overlooked histories. The work comprises untying strands and threads, anchored by a rhythmic editing style, as well as close attention to the dissonance, reflection and amplification that occurs between image and sound.
