moving beyond documentation as a goal of recording, ds' sonic mappings offer a tactile mode of object and site interaction through sound documentations. using an array of microphones and other recording strategies from diy- to high-tech, sinha explores the possiblity of cartography beyond colonial imperatives.
with a strong grounding in listening and performance, sinha's cartographical projects engage with the site-as-is, querying and seeking ways to refuse the extractive modes and assumptions of recording, of mapping, and of data interpretation.
