Pushing. Hearing. Outwards. (2018) is a soundscape composition by Canadian composer and sound artist Claude Schryer whose content is drawn from his simplesoundscapes.ca project, a series of 3-minute video and audio recordings that explore mindful listening. Schryer notes that Pushing. Hearing. Outwards. is inspired by indigenous writer Richard Wagamese’s unfinished novel Starlight, notably on page 180, where Wagamese writes: ‘she focused on that tiny point of light and pushed her hearing out through it’. This quote inspired Schryer to explore the idea of pushing the boundaries of our senses through to other dimensions. Schryer suggests that the listener set aside any expectations or judgements when listening to Pushing. Hearing. Outwards. and to open hearing beyond the sounds themselves (and see what happens). Pushing. Hearing. Outwards. is available for streaming and as a free download on http://simplesoundscapes.ca. This work is dedicated to the memory of Richard Wagamese, who passed away in 2017.
