DESCRIPTION:This paper addresses the relationship between local and distri
 buted strategies with reference to two recent participatory sound art proj
 ects in Belfast and Rio de Janeiro The local concern for site and place is
 \ndiscussed and juxtaposed with distributed practices\, which\, by definit
 ion question and extend the very notion of site or locale. I refer to exam
 ples from ethnomusicology\, anthropology and education in\nwhich participa
 tive horizontal research methodologies lead to a dynamic articulation of l
 ocal conditions and allow for a reflection on how technology impacts on so
 cial interaction and relationships with place.\nThe works of Samuel Araúj
 o\, Georgina Born and Brazilian pedagogue Paulo Freire provide a framework
  of reference in this context. \n\nThis is a joint session of the CRASSH '
 City Seminar' and 'Civic Matter'.
