立方計劃空間很榮幸受邀參與2025年「聆聽雙年展」（The Listening Biennial），這項全球串聯的展覽，今年有25個機構在各自所在的地方舉行與聆聽相關的展演活動。立方計劃空間的參與，除了在台北設立實體聆聽室之外，並透過一系列線上聲音節目的發佈，探索台灣與東南亞之間深刻但常被忽略的歷史與聲音連結。
「聆聽雙年展」於2021年創辦，是由藝術家暨作家Brandon LaBelle發起，並與全球策展人及學者團隊合作的國際展演平台。雙年展旨在連結世界各地的藝術家、研究者及機構，將「聆聽」視為一種社會、政治與生態參與的方法進行探討。第三屆雙年展將於2025年9月20日至11月16日舉行，主題為「第三聆聽」（Third Listening），鼓勵參與者超越表層的聽覺接收，邁向一種更具同理心、批判性與歷史知覺的聆聽模式。
作為此全球計劃的一部分，立方計劃空間將在自身的空間裡設立聆聽室，與全球同步，共同展出本屆雙年展來自世界各地的27件聲音作品。這將為台灣本地觀眾提供一個直接且同時參與這場全球聲音文化活動的機會。

▌策展論述
「漫天星辰在我頭頂閃爍，我竟能聽見它們的聲音。我聆聽著星群的嗡鳴，無數聲響在耳畔細語。我能想像它們對我的訴說。我肩負著整個宇宙——我們都是，每個人都是。」——諾娜·費爾南德斯（Nona Fernández），《航海者》（Voyager）
第三屆聆聽雙年展（The Listening Biennial）邀請我們調頻接收天上嗡鳴的星辰與其承載的無數聲音。這些訴說著愛與失落的聲音，既銘刻過往又召喚未來，以神秘而強大的力量共振，將宇宙物質與具身化生命交織於充滿力量的敘事中。當我們塵世的物質存在需要更堅定的參與形式時，天上的宇宙之聲或將持續為成為親族提供指引。仰望即是聆聽多元生命形態，探尋此處與彼處之間的連結路徑。本屆雙年展旨在培育讓這種間隙性聆聽茁壯成長的時空場域。
本屆雙年展透過「第三聆聽」（Third Listening）的概念構建，強調主體間性與相互依存性，並於全球不同地區的合作機構與空間呈現，與相關藝術團體及創意項目協作共創。「第三聆聽」被構想為一種間隙性聆聽，意在感知並持守跨越文化與物質世界的差異性迫切需求。這種聆聽在排斥性系統中仍堅持共同實踐，促發「共言」行動及支持多元能力的具身化生活倫理。這包括涵容好客性中固有的張力——在那裡，共存需要持續的抗爭、想像、勇氣與守護。
過去一年間，「第三聆聽」框架透過工作坊、對話與協作測試逐步發展，匯聚了多地多元情境中的貢獻者與對話者。這些實踐成為反思該概念、開啟第三種聆聽動態實施方式的重要契機。從對抗當下極化現象到敬重星球生命的共享活力，此類間隙性聆聽追隨著定義當代經驗的濃厚關係性脈動。這些節奏化、糾纏且混沌的存在狀態，旨在促發修復性行動與物質性夥伴關係的維繫。秉持「第三性」即意味著尋求彼此承諾的途徑。
依循「第三聆聽」概念，本屆雙年展聚焦藝術家、音樂人、研究者與行動者，其作品詮釋主體間性與相互依存性，喚醒星球共存的幽靈與故事。這些將透過為期兩個月、橫跨25個場地的多面向項目呈現：展覽陳列、聆聽情境、親密聚會、論述與表演活動、探索性工作坊。項目包括串聯各地與語言的線上對話系列，以及特邀貢獻者撰寫的系列聲音論文出版。
自2021年創立以來，聆聽雙年展始終致力推動關於聆聽的研究與討論，認可其作為豐富個人生活與社會行動關鍵的轉化力量，並支持倫理與政治實踐。第三屆聆聽雙年展作為一場聆聽之旅，邀請您體驗親密感與集體世界構建的批判性歡愉。

2025 The Listening Biennial: Third Listening
• Dates: 20 September – 16 November 2025, 2:00 PM – 8:00 PM, Wednesday to Sunday
• Venue: TheCube Project Space, Listening Room
Official Website:
https://thecubespace.com/project/the-listening-biennial-2025-en/
TheCube Project Space is honored to be invited to participate in The Listening Biennial 2025, a global exhibition connecting 25 institutions holding listening-related exhibitions and events in their respective locations. TheCube's participation includes establishing a physical listening room in Taipei and launching a series of online sound programs to explore the deep yet often overlooked historical and sonic connections between Taiwan and Southeast Asia.
Founded in 2021 by artist and writer Brandon LaBelle, The Listening Biennial is an international exhibition platform organized in collaboration with a global team of curators and scholars. The biennial aims to connect artists, researchers, and institutions worldwide, exploring "listening" as a method of social, political, and ecological engagement. The third edition, titled "Third Listening," will take place from September 20 to November 16, 2025, encouraging participants to move beyond superficial auditory reception toward a more empathetic, critical, and historically aware mode of listening.
As part of this global initiative, TheCube Project Space will set up a listening room in its space, exhibiting 27 sound works from around the world that are part of this year's biennial. This will provide a direct and simultaneous opportunity for local Taiwanese audiences to engage in this global sound culture event.

▌Curatorial Statement
“So many stars are twinkling above me that I can hear them. I listen to their hum, countless voices whispering in my ear. I can imagine what they’re saying to me. I’m carrying the whole universe on my shoulders. We all do, all of us.” – Nona Fernández, Voyager
The third edition of The Listening Biennial invites us to tune into the humming stars above and the countless voices they carry. These are voices of love and loss, voices that hold the past while evoking a future, and that resound with mystery and force, threading cosmic matter and embodied life with their potent stories. While our terrestrial, material existence demands increasingly committed forms of engagement, the cosmic voices above may continue to offer guidance in becoming-relatives. To look up is to listen out for a plurality of life-forms as well as pathways of connection found between here and there. The Listening Biennial aims at fostering a time and space in which such interstitial listenings may flourish.
Presented across a constellation of partner institutions and spaces located in different regions of the world, and in collaboration with associated collectives and creative initiatives, The Listening Biennial takes shape through the concept of Third Listening, emphasizing the intersubjective and interdependent. Third Listening is imagined as a form of interstitial listening intent on sensing and staying with the differential urgencies spanning cultural and material worlds. Third Listening is a listening done together and in spite of exclusionary systems, lending to acts of speaking-with and the embodied, living ethics that support diverse abilities. This includes holding the tension inherent to hospitality, where coexistence requires the ongoingness of struggle, imagination, courage and protection.
Third Listening as a framework has been developed through workshops, conversations and collaborative testings over the past year, involving many contributors and interlocutors in different places and contexts. These have been vital situations for reflecting upon the concept as well as opening onto ways of enacting a third listening dynamic. From contending with current polarizations to honoring the shared vitality of planetary life, such interstitial listening follows the pulse of a thick relationality defining contemporary experience. These are rhythmic, entangled and messy states of being mobilized to foster reparative action and the maintenance of material partnerships. Carrying the Third invites ways of committing to each other.
Following the concept of Third Listening, The Listening Biennial features artists, musicians, researchers and activists whose works give expression to the intersubjective and interdependent, animating the specters and stories of planetary coexistence. These are elaborated through a multi-faceted program of exhibition presentations, listening situations, intimate gatherings, discursive and performance events, and explorative workshops taking place across 25 locations over two months. This includes a program of online conversations aimed at bridging locations and languages as well as the publication of a series of audio papers by invited contributors.
Since 2021, The Listening Biennial has sought to foster research and discussion on listening, recognizing its transformative power as key to enriching personal lives and social initiatives, and which supports ethical, political practices. The third edition of The Listening Biennial is offered as a listening journey, inviting intimacy and the critical joy of collective worldings.
