GLACIAL WITHNESS: LISTENING AT THE EDGE OF PLANETARY BOUNDARIES

published as a peer-reviewed article in Seismograf, 2025
 

This newly published audio paper offers an autoethnographic engagement with both glaciers and the ideas-of-glaciers through acts of listening by Snæfellsjökul fyrir forseta campaign members. The campaign relies upon artistic intervention as sociolegal innovation by nominating the glacier Snæfellsjökull for Iceland’s 2024 presidential race. A founding tenet of the collective’s working method is listening as a primary strategy to become-with glacier (að jökla). Through campaign members’ application of multimodal research approaches, the audio paper conceptualises, describes, and demonstrates how listening forms an integral component of communicating with the more-than-human to speculate on possible future worldings.
