Historias y narrativas que conforman la identidad de ecosistemas sonoros.

Abstract

The identity of the sound ecosystem is a set of systems that form ephemeral spatio-tempo- ral interrelationships and are manifested in a certain territory and moment, perceived by subjectivity, in our case, by artists. This identity helps us to get to know the multiple sound dimensions of a place and, in turn, enables the creation of new sound identities through art. The research question is about how the recording of a sound tells us something about the identity of the ecosystem. The aim of this article is to analyse this question on the basis of the works “In the heart of Tlanchana. Stories from the lagoon of San Miguel Almaya, State of Mexico” (2017) and “Bolibarko Erreka” (2018), works that converge in the construction of the identity of sound ecosystems. The methodology is based on a typology of artistic attitudes towards the ecosystem, developed in the doctoral thesis entitled “The identity of sound ecosystems as a basis for artistic creation”, which establishes three forms of relation- ship between the artistic subject and the ecosystem through sound: 1) more active, 2) less active and 3) hybrid.
