Exploring the relationship of how we are both shaping and being shaped by our surroundings through embodied conversations with artists and thinkers, the Worlding Podcast expands our awareness of our more-than human surroundings and traces interpersonal connections by inviting each guest to recommend an important person for them to be interviewed next, similar to a string figure. Hosted by dance artist Renae Shadler, this show has an organic life of its own and tends to meander in unpredictable and unexpected ways.

Samuel Hertz is a Berlin-based sound artist and researcher working at intersections of Earth-based sound, sonic sensualities, and climate change. This episode Samuel dives into complexity theory and shares listening practices that enable us to develop a more nuanced understanding of the sonic world. He proposes sound as a metaphor to reveal multiple layers of activity and bring us into a more nuanced understanding of what's happening around us.
Through the lens of complexity we discuss 'care' which Samuel critiques as generally being understood as something similar to stewardship that actually is considered an antiquated concept when dealing with critical ecosystems. He argues that from this perspective care can create power structures which lead humans to believe they are in charge and in a hierarchical position to care over something.
Instead, Samuel proposes caring-with and using complexity as a tool to develop an understanding of how changes within specific ecosystems affect other beings and other materials they are entangled with.
