Listening is a perception that is often left behind in artistic circuits and industries. Since the 1970s when sound art appeared as a separate discipline, different strategies were used to make sound and listening exercises more notorious or conscious. Even though these strategies helped to put sound on stage (music, noise, and various compositions), it has other means of distribution, separate from visual art. Today we also find an NFT circuit that has relegated the audio to silence in a similar way to the platforms in which we access content (like social media, streaming platforms, and video games). Although there is a level of concern around this situation, the sound still seems to be put in second place: it is turned off by default.

Listening is a highly charged emotional experience, operating in that part of a symbolic field that we are not prepared to approach. What exactly do we miss when we forget to turn on the sound of an artwork? Can this aspect of the crypto art reveal something about our modernity? How does this particular sound look like?

This selection of tokenized artworks allows us to see and listen at the same time. Here we look at the aesthetic climate of a region, exploring artistic strategies between digital and discursive tools created to express ideas and feelings through sound.
