DESCRIPTION:This talk will present some initial findings from my research\
 , which explores the sonic interactions of tourists with Antarctic landsca
 pes and wildlife during field recording workshops in the Antarctic Peninsu
 la. Data from 218 participant surveys reveals insights into how an active 
 focus on sound as a source of sensory interaction with the environment can
  impact visitors' relations to Antarctica and their attitudes towards its 
 conservation. In this talk\, I will discuss how the practice of intentiona
 l listening to polar soundscapes\, encompassing vocalizations of wildlife 
 and ambient geophonic elements as well as human-produced sounds\, can stim
 ulate sensitization to environmental change\, and cultivate a heightened s
 ense of connection and stewardship among tourists.
