Drawing from research conducted during a sound studies working group at the DC Jail (2018–2019) through Georgetown's Prisons and Justice Initiative, the work blends testimony, critical analysis, surround sound, live music, and minimal visual cues to center the voices and creative practices of those who have endured carceral soundscapes. The main performance component is a surround-sound illustration of how to listen while incarcerated. Featuring live ensemble music co-composed with Carlos Simon and incorporating field recordings from inside the jail, the performance investigates the auditory dimensions of surveillance, isolation, and resistance. A darkened stage, projected text and imagery, and spotlighted presenters draw attention to the sensory conditions of incarceration and the adaptive listening strategies developed within them.
