Listening to it happen -- 6. An impossible refrain -- 7. Dancing to the tune of the infinitive -- 8. Echoes -- 9. Fortuity.
Summary: While making these thinkers audible, and beckoning its reader to listen to sound, both noisy and songful, Sounding the Event continues the author's commitment to the practice of writing as a visual artist. As it proposes that 'to think' is an event, it also invites both listening and laughter.
