EARS OPEN
'The possible is distributed… it lives in the relational space between people, objects, and environments.'
— Possibility Studies: A Manifesto, Vlad Glăveanu (2022)

THE POSSIBLE IS NOT YET FINISHED
This is a space for sharing lived viewpoints and local knowledge. It works like a swap shop, open to all kinds of unboxed expertise, whether drawn from experience, memory, observation or everyday practice. The materials here — recordings, images, interviews, reflections — come from people connected to their localities.
The 'translocal': Explore global commonalities with your digital neighbours.
