Delhi Listeners Group


https://delhilisteners.in

"Delhi Listening Group works in the context of a very fast changing urban environment in which the city plan is profoundly disconnected from the lived city. We propose listening as an alternative to the map and the plan as way of producing knowledge of the everyday city and exploring shifting sonic mores that are reconfiguring the borders between sound and noise. Listening is the work we do to re-earmagine the city and to generate dialogue between diverse ways of listening."

Mother Jones writer disrupting the echo chambers



James West writes, "I began a mini-experiment after the election: Facebook-friend every Trump voter I interviewed this year. I hope to dish up more diverse political views for our readers, and to inspire Facebook's algorithm to deliver different news sources to my feed. I also want to keep reporting on voters' reactions after the election—to see how their views change over time and if mine do, too."
