This workshop will focus on sonic ecologies and their relevance for city making practices. Specifically, the workshop will focus on passage migrants, migratory birds that are flying through Hong Kong between Russia and Australia on the north-south East Asian Australasian Flyway. 

In September, when this workshop takes place, the birds will be flying over Hong Kong and south to Australia. Migration is dangerous for the birds for many reasons including the glass skyscrapers of large cities. The birds have great difficulty navigating the light and reflections of the glass and frequently crash into the buildings. In the mornings there can be carnage on the pavements below. With an orientation to languaging and landscape, and sound in relation to architecture and urban space, this workshop will comprise site-specific interspecies listening and voicing to explore and build connections between birds, people and place.
