'Stožice Walk’ represents the conclusion of the ‘Sonic Ontology of Negligence’ trilogy, initiated in 2020 by Steklenik – Gallery for sound, bioacoustics and art, from Ljubljana.

The first part of the trilogy was a sound work titled ‘Sonic Ontology of Negligence' produced as a publication and a series of in-situ FM radio sound walks.

The second piece, composed of the material gathered in the performative walk through abandoned mega-structure Stožice, is ‘Nothing Has To Happen, Fortress Europe’, commissioned by Radiophrenia 2022.

The work was published by Elan Vital Recordings, as a start of the series Dystopian 001, a split release with Toni Dimitrov.

"Sonic Ontology of Negligence is continuous research evolving from listening to abandoned places and landscapes reshaped by the extensive intervention of human presence and exploitation, and eventually “given over” to Nature to reclaim the space."

My intention with the trilogy was to tackle the sphere of the politics of sound and to put a soundscape in a wider socio-cultural framework.

With this work I tried to build a synthesis that included geoanthropology - an interdisciplinary approach to the study of the interaction between Earth processes and humanity, then, I searched for common denominators of the phenomenology of listening and the culture of memory as well as systems ecology which focuses on interactions and transactions within and between biological and ecological systems and is especially concerned with the way the functioning of ecosystems can be influenced by human interventions.

Text

The ocean, deep blue-green.
What we learn in the middle of the night is that the world makes us flinch. (Michel Serres, The Five Senses: Philosophy of Mingled Bodies)
Sounds an ocean, drinks it in.

Then everything became worse for the wear, damaged, used and used-up and ultimately destroyed.
More and more I made up for what was lost, I slowly improved myself, and I considered myself healed. (Ingeborg Bachmann, Malina)

I found myself trapped in a nightmare, standing alone at the sea. Everyday becoming more and more.
White and yellow and gray and horizonless. (Tove Jansson, The Summer Book)
