Nova Publicação -Trajetos Comunicantes: A Matéria da Escuta

To conclude the Connecting Commutes project, part of the artistic programme of Braga 25 Portuguese Capital of Culture, the book ‘Trajetos Comunicantes: A Matéria da Escuta’ is being published in partnership with Audire and CECS.
The work, edited by Luís Pinto, coordinator of this project, features essays by artists, researchers – including three CECS collaborators – and students who responded to the international call launched in 2025, which also resulted in around 80 sound pieces that were part of the project launched in March 2025.
It includes texts by André Perim, Angelos Kottas, Arjan Onderdendwijngaard, Cláudio Bezz, Frederico Pessoa, Karina Sletten, Khristina Otts, Laetitia Kozlova, Marcelino Ferreira, Nigel Bristow, Paul Devens, Ralph Hoyte, Ricardo Silvestre,Susana Vieira, Teresa Lima and Vanya Nesterets, in an attempt to explore ‘listening as an essential practice for understanding and inhabiting the contemporary world, rescuing sound as a sensitive material that shapes public space, memory and collective life’.
The book also includes two sections of photographic essays, based on the conceptual framework of this artistic proposal and the creative process of Trajetos Comunicantes.

The book is available,in open access, here
