Ears Have Eyes

For our February program, we are leaning into the double-meanings of “snow,” both as a natural weather phenomenon of Canadian winters, and a type of static or visual noise. The static on a television set is ever-shifting, like a blizzard. On today’s program, sonic forms vibrate in and out of being and familiar sounds hide in the static; artists share sounds that reveal themselves as you listen, emerging like shapes melting through the snow.

For the first episode of the new year, we’re exploring the strange and hazy sounds floating just out of focus – somewhere on the fringe between science fiction, tongue twisters, and the fantastic phonic frequency that can only be heard and not told. We’ve included Abstractions, stories, and experiments, including (but not limited to) experimental music, spoken word, fantasy, fiction, and more. Tune in and sail away with us, under the ears and inside the tongue….

For many, December is a month of feasting. For our last episode of 2024, we invited local, national, and international sound artists to submit delicious sounds, ranging from literal recordings of food being prepared and consumed, to the strange, hyper-specific noises that they just love. We’re setting the table for a veritable feast of strange, scrumptious, and occasionally disgusting sound art – this month, variety is the spice.

This month, we’re listening to the voices of animals, plants, and ecosystems outside our normal human understanding. From the barking of street dogs, to the whispering mycelial networks of forests, to the soundscapes of marine life in the world’s busiest sea, we’re sharing sound art that amplifies the “more than human” world – a phrase coined by ecologist-philosopher David Abram in 1996 to describe the living world beyond human beings.

In today's broadcast, silence, noise, rotation and pulsation are the main themes of a forthcoming and unreleased sound art album by Dr. Tibor Donath, called Minor PLANETS – heard for the first time on today’s show! THE STRANGE SOUND OF MINOR PLANETS is curated by Dr. Donath and draws from The Little Prince by French author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, and expands into abstract, imaginary, auditory experiments.

A bellwether is an omen, soothsayer, or predictor of the future. For our September episode of EARS HAVE EYES, we’re responding to the changing seasons through an exploration of anticipation, anxiety, and sound as an agent of foreshadowing for things to come. From climate anxiety to rising waters, unidentified noises to literal bells, local, national, and international sound artists joined us in interpreting Bellwethers for today’s program.

Our August episode uses the Perseids meteor shower – an annual event where comets streak across night skies – to explore the sonic space of Summer nighttime as an abstract (and literal) location.

As of this month, we are pleased to announce that EARS HAVE EYES is syndicated not just on Golden Co-op Radio, but also on New Adventures in Sound Art - NAISA Radio.

Our July episode responds to a 5-week water crisis still resolving in Calgary, where a massive pipe rupture led to the fear of taps running dry to over a million citizens. We expanded this anxiety into an abstract exploration of pressure, uncertainty, and water as a catalyst for sound.

This episode features interviews with experimental composer Jeremy Gignoux, and Hiba Abdallah and Josh Babcock of Broken City Lab art collective.

This month, we're exploring spatial sounds, as they relate to the built environment, domesticity, and anthropocentric spaces.

This month’s theme is NEW GREEN: shifting, sprouting, shy & splendorous. Tied to EARS HAVE EYES’ ongoing relationship with synaesthesia and the colour of sound, NEW GREEN references the hopeful optimism for a Spring ahead, while playfully implicating more subversive narratives, from “new money” to March’s ultimate – if obnoxious – green event, St. Patrick’s Day.

This month's program is a collage of sonic experiments, old sound sculptures, sketches for songs, archival materials, recordings from prolific audio engineers, and a few works from our own archives, including some sound art we couldn’t play on previous episodes.
