Black Seas is a project about listening. It is about listening politically, socially, biologically, psychologically, historically and psycho\/acoustically. It is about a weird listening. A listening, as Mark Fisher describes when theorizing the weird and the eerie via Lovecraft, that brings two worlds together; the external and the internal. A weird listening is one that \u201d\u2026lies beyond standardized perception, cognition, and experience.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Klavika Light';\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Black Seas takes in horror and weird fiction, film, music and sound studies, medical history, cognitive science, psychiatry, 19th century psychic journals, telecommunications theory, mysticism, philosophy, religion and shared stories. It swims in ecstasy, terror and the banal.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Klavika Light';\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Black Seas considers the grey areas between hallucination and a threshold of hearing, or mishearing. When we listen very, very hard. Weird things happen. This is often the pivot point in horror films &#8211; the moment of hearing something .<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Klavika Light';\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">For my project at Sporobole, I will be working through various sound, radio, video and print elements of Black Seas. This work will be present in the gallery space in experimental and shifting forms.&#8221;\u00a0<em>Steve Bates<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Klavika Light';\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">&#8211; Fisher, Mark.
