This workshop explores the sonic dimension of sleeping spaces using the tools of a sound designer. Through embodied listening practices alongside digital media, we rediscover the shapes and textures of these intimate soundscapes–and the way we negotiate our environment while seeking rest.

Devon Bate is a composer and sound designer, currenlty Research Assistant with the Sociability of Sleep, and an MA student at Concordia University. His creative work explores how listening shapes social space, community and identity, and his academic research focuses on backgroun noise and ambient audiovisual media on popular streaming platforms.
