    Transatlantic African Sound Praxis: Communitarian Practices, Pedagogies and Research
    (Arts Research Africa, 2022-09-16) Pyper, Brett; Moutinho Ribeiro, Renan; Mendonca, Pedro; Freire, Juliana; Carneiro De Sousa, Felipe
    This paper summarizes the exploration of sound praxis, a decolonial approach in South African universities inspired by the work of Brazilian educator and philosopher Paulo Freire. The paper discusses the history and development of sound praxis, focusing on articles and research by Samuel Araújo and the Ethnomusicology Laboratory of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. The concept of sound praxis integrates dialogue, participation, and collective authorship in research, challenging traditional academic norms. The abstract also highlights the collaboration between Brazilian and South African activists, educators, and researchers, as they seek to apply sound praxis in their respective contexts and explore the potential for transformative pedagogy and artistic practice.
