As I walked into the space I heard the birds singing. I heard traffic going by and the trees rustling in the wind. Walking further into the space I feel the sensation and sound of crunch beneath my feet, it made me wonder about what made the sound. Was it the rocks rubbing together? Was it the rocks against the dirt? This took me back to PAULINE OLIVEROS: THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HEARING AND LISTENING, WHEN SHE SAID “The Ear hears, the brain listens, the body senses vibrations” (The difference between hearing and listening | Pauline Oliveros | TEDxIndianapolis 2015).
I gathered artefacts (rocks) and lined them up on a Bench, all different sizes, all different textures and tapped them together. All of the rocks made different sounds when tapped together. This made me wonder why? If rocks are the same natural material, what makes the sounds different? It also gave me a wonder about past present and would the Aboriginal people have used rocks and stones to make sound. In the Dadirri short film Miriam says, “To listen deeply, is to connect” (Ungunmerr, 2002). I genuinely think during this activity I truly used Dadirri, connecting to all of my senses. This exercise made me reflect on my own practice with using deep listening to delve deeper and ensuring I create time within my day to use deep listening because there is so many opportunities missed.
