World Listening Day is an annual 24 hour broadcast as a community reflection on and celebration of sound, creativity and listening. In 2021 it happened on July 18, a date chosen to honor one of the pioneer in acoustic ecology, music and sound studies, Canadian composer R. Murray Schafer. The day is self-organized and initiated by personal celebrations, local live and public events, and are taking place around the world, while the World Listening Project has curated a 24-hour online audio and video broadcast from contributions received in response to its open call, reflecting this year’s theme, “The Unquiet Earth.”
KRA participated with some Rural Development artists. “Three Moments In A Day” was part of their collective streaming performance, again from different locations in the countryside.
